BuseyBench is a creative AI benchmark that evaluates over 230 language models on their ability to generate SVG portraits of actor Gary Busey. It pits models from providers like OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, and DeepSeek against a deliberately absurd but technically revealing task, scoring each run on output quality, token usage, cost, and duration. The leaderboard allows filtering and sorting by provider, model family, score, and cost, making it a surprisingly useful tool for comparing generative and coding capabilities across frontier models. Despite its humorous premise, it offers genuine insight into how different AI models handle structured creative generation tasks like SVG image construction.
