## What the chart shows

Video-MME tests multiple-choice questions about short, medium and long videos. The best score by model release year rose from 59.9% in 2023 (GPT-4V), to 75% in 2024 (Gemini 1.5 Pro (Feb 2024)) and 79.7% in 2025 (video-SALMONN 2+).

Long videos are the hardest part: models lose track of details spread across up to an hour of footage.

## How to read it

- Results collected by Epoch AI; the overall score without subtitles, so the model must follow what it sees and hears.
- Each bar is the best result among models released that year, from Epoch AI’s benchmarking hub. Scores depend on the model version and settings; years are model release years.
