Gemini 3.1 Pro has the cleaner provisional overall profile here, landing at 92 versus 89. It is a real lead, but still close enough that category-level strengths matter more than the headline number.
Gemini 3.1 Pro's sharpest advantage is in multimodal & grounded, where it averages 82.8 against 72.7. The single biggest benchmark swing on the page is MMMU-Pro, 83.9% to 81.2%.
GPT-5.4 is also the more expensive model on tokens at $2.50 input / $15.00 output per 1M tokens, versus $2.00 input / $12.00 output per 1M tokens for Gemini 3.1 Pro. GPT-5.4 is the reasoning model in the pair, while Gemini 3.1 Pro is not. That usually helps on harder chain-of-thought-heavy tests, but it can also mean more latency and more token spend in real use. GPT-5.4 gives you the larger context window at 1.05M, compared with 1M for Gemini 3.1 Pro.
Gemini 3.1 Pro is ahead on BenchLM's provisional leaderboard, 92 to 89. The biggest single separator in this matchup is MMMU-Pro, where the scores are 83.9% and 81.2%.
Gemini 3.1 Pro has the edge for multimodal and grounded tasks in this comparison, averaging 82.8 versus 72.7. Inside this category, GDPval-AA is the benchmark that creates the most daylight between them.
