## Abstract (arXiv)

This paper presents a research program dedicated to evaluating and advancing the reasoning capabilities of Bielik, a Polish large language model. The study describes a number of stages of work: initial benchmarking and creation of evaluation methodology, analyzing of comparative results with other LLMs and outlining of future prospects that take into account the limitations of the analyses conducted so far and aims to keep Bielik in the race give the ever-changing -- and competitive -- AI landscape.
