How this is ranked
AI models ranked by LCR — reasoning accuracy over long inputs, not just the size of the window they accept. A large context window is a capacity claim; this is the measurement of whether the model can still reason over information buried deep inside it. Pair it with the longest-context ranking, which sorts on raw window size.
