OpenAI says partial automation could already generate scientific value.","whyItMatters":"The benchmark targets the gap between AI that can follow workflows and AI that can make the high-level judgments real scientific research requires, with current models solving less than a third of problems.","webCardHtml":"\u003cp\u003eOpenAI released GeneBench-Pro, a benchmark designed to test whether AI can do more than recall facts or follow predefined steps. Each problem presents unorganized datasets and experimental backgrounds, requiring the AI to explore data, select analysis methods, and iterate toward an answer. OpenAI notes that scientific data rarely comes with a manual, and researchers must judge whether a pattern reflects a real phenomenon or is noise.\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen tested, OpenAI\u0026#39;s most powerful model GPT-5.6 Sol achieved a pass rate of 31.5% at the top reasoning setting. At the lowest reasoning level, the pass rate stayed in single digits, showing a sixfold increase with more computation. OpenAI stated that if progress continues at the current pace, the benchmark could be saturated by the end of the year.\u003c/p\u003e","blueskyPost":"OpenAI announced GeneBench-Pro, a computational biology benchmark for AI scientific reasoning.
