TydiQA
A multilingual question answering benchmark covering 11 typologically diverse languages with 204K question-answer pairs. Questions are written by people seeking genuine information and data is collected directly in each language without translation to test model generalization across diverse linguistic structures.
Llama 4 Maverick from Meta currently leads the TydiQA leaderboard with a score of 0.317 across 2 evaluated AI models.

Abstract
Confidently making progress on multilingual modeling requires challenging, trustworthy evaluations. We present TyDi QA---a question answering dataset covering 11 typologically diverse languages with 204K question-answer pairs. The languages of TyDi QA are diverse with regard to their typology---the set of linguistic features each language expresses---such that we expect models performing well on this set to generalize across a large number of the world's languages. We present a quantitative analysis of the data quality and example-level qualitative linguistic analyses of observed language phenomena that would not be found in English-only corpora. To provide a realistic information-seeking task and avoid priming effects, questions are written by people who want to know the answer, but don't know the answer yet, and the data is collected directly in each language without the use of translation.
Llama 4 Maverick leads with 31.7%, followed by Llama 4 Scout at 31.5%.
