PRISM‑Bench is an audio‑centric diagnostic benchmark for text‑to‑audio‑video generation, built from 900 human‑verified samples. It evaluates audio along two axes—audio type (speech, music, sound) and sound‑source visibility (on‑screen vs. off‑screen)—across four perceptual dimensions (audio‑visual coherence, audio quality, audio expressiveness, and prompt following) using 35 fine‑grained criteria. The benchmark employs an enhanced MLLM‑as‑a‑Judge protocol that aligns strongly with human raters, revealing a performance gap between frontier and open‑source T2AV models and highlighting overfitting to perceptual fidelity while struggling with complex grounding and control tasks, especially for music and synchronized on‑screen audio.

StreamAV-Bench is the first comprehensive benchmark designed for streaming audio‑video generation, addressing the limitations of existing benchmarks that focus on completed sequences. It introduces a unified evaluation framework with a progressive track for instruction adherence and long‑horizon stability, and an interactive track for responsive interaction and state retention. The benchmark includes 32 fine‑grained, expert‑verified evaluation cases and evaluates 13 representative systems, revealing temporal drift in progressive generation and responsiveness bottlenecks in interactive control.

SONIC‑O1 is a new benchmark designed to evaluate multimodal large language models on audio‑video understanding. It contains 60 hours of 231 clips across 13 real‑world conversational domains, with 4,958 human‑verified annotations and demographic metadata. The benchmark tests open‑ended summarization, multiple‑choice question answering, and temporally grounded reasoning, revealing performance gaps between model families and across demographic groups.
