Measuring AI Ability to Complete Long Tasks – METR
https://metr.org/blog/2025-03-19-measuring-ai-ability-to-complete-long-tasks/

To measure these capabilities, we’re open-sourcing DeepSearchQA, a new benchmark to evaluate agents on complex web search tasks. Deep Research achieves state-of-the-art performance on this benchmark, as well as on the full Humanity’s Last Exam set (reasoning & knowledge), and https://x.com/GoogleDeepMind/status/1999165706231820297

We tested one of the most common prompting techniques: giving the AI a persona to make it more accurate We found that telling the AI “”you are a great physicist”” doesn’t make it significantly more accurate at answering physics questions, nor does “”you are a lawyer”” make it worse. https://x.com/emollick/status/1998063517681799418

Yes, there is a leak. I had investigated this. Some of the ARC-AGI-1 public evaluation examples can be found in the ARC-AGI-2 training examples. So training on both ARC-AGI-1 and ARC-AGI-2 training data is cheating as it leads to crazy good accuracy for ARC-AGI-1.”” / X https://x.com/jm_alexia/status/1998487516182467055

I hate to keep bringing this up, but studies cannot lump reasoners with earlier models when considering AI abilities And while studies don’t need to always use the latest models, they should test to see if there are trends in ability as model size scales to anticipate the future https://x.com/emollick/status/1998119842268738040

Introducing @ServiceNow AI’s Apriel-1.6-15B-Thinker, a 15B multimodal reasoning model that matches the performance of 235B models while being 15x smaller.

It’s great to see that inter-node network speeds are starting to catch up with intra-node speeds. e.g. B300 instances on @awscloud are: – 800GBps inter-node EFA v4 – 900GBps intra-node NVlink-5 So inter-node is gradually becoming less of a bottleneck.”” / X https://x.com/StasBekman/status/1998821183844938000

Key ways to fuse modalities: ▪️ Attention-based fusion – uses attention mechanisms to control which parts of each modality the model should focus on. • Cross-attention – turns the final text hidden state into key-value vectors.
