Inference cost

$0.080

every prompt, every round

12 places better picking the real bracket round by round (#20) than in the tournament it locked in before kickoff (#32).

Two separate benchmarks. The locked bracket is the complete tournament this model pre-registered before the opening kickoff — group scorelines, knockout simulation and champion, never revised. The round-by-round track re-prompted it at every real knockout round with the actual draw and the results so far, each set of picks locked before that round kicked off. Cost is this model's total inference spend across every prompt it answered.

Prediction personality

Jamba Large 1.7 leans cautious in front of goal, slow to call a draw and a contrarian.

Hunts upsets

6 of 63 favourite matchups called as upsets

Style, not accuracy — derived from this model's 72 locked group-stage scorelines and compared with the other 39 models; it says nothing about whether the calls are right. “Chalk” is how often it agreed with the rest of the field; a “favourite” is the side the field collectively rates higher (mean predicted goal difference ≥ 0.5), not a bookmaker's.

Predicted group tables

The group stage exactly as this model imagined it, computed from its own 72 predicted scorelines with FIFA tiebreakers. Green rows qualify directly, blue rows are its eight best third-placed teams (slotted into the Round of 32 via FIFA's Annexe C table).

Predicted bracket

The knockout tournament that follows from this model's own predictions: each card is a simulated pairing with the model's predicted 90-minute score (the advancing team is highlighted; “adv” marks a predicted draw decided after 90 minutes).

“—” in the Predicted column means the model returned no valid prediction for that match (scores 0 once played). Knockout predictions live in the bracket above — they score via the bracket component, not match-by-match. Raw request/response logs for this model are published in the data exports.
