Artificial Analysis (@ArtificialAnlys) scored OpenBMB MiniCPM5-2B (2.6B dense, 131k context, Apache 2.0) at 15 on Intelligence Index v4.2 — highest among open-weights models under 4B total parameters. Strong small-model agentic results (GDPval-AA / τ³-Banking); coding/long-context benches like Terminal-Bench lag larger peers.
