Mercury 3 Code Passes 2,000 Map Checks in Test That Skips Speed

Inception’s Mercury 3 produced game code that cleared 2,000 map-generation checks in a separately published eight-run API test, but the test did not assess its claimed speed advantage against rivals. The code passed a syntax check and 2,000 randomized checks of specified map-generation conditions. Those results cover the tested conditions, not every feature of the game. Mercury 3 also answered one familiar logic puzzle correctly. On one business-math prompt, it got the core calculations right but made an error about percentage margin. The model exceeded a requested word limit in a writing task.
