CURRENT ASSESSMENT · REVISION 1

Why this model scores 64.1

Strong reasoning and multimodal functions inside a mass social platform create substantial capability and misuse exposure; hosted access limits distribution but documented election-image guardrail failures raise control difficulty.

MODEL-ATTRIBUTED EVIDENCE

News tied to Grok-2

The model score of 64.1 rates this model's risk profile. The overall Doom Index of 63.2 measures the recalibrated complete evidence corpus. These values answer different questions.

NET MODEL-ATTRIBUTED INDEX CONTRIBUTION+0.03

Each article's leave-one-out Doom Index contribution is divided equally among the exact models named on that article. This prevents multi-model evidence from being claimed in full on several model pages. Model risk scores are recalculated from their technical profile and related news, but never feed back into the overall index.
