Article: "How Good Are Frontier Models at Physics?
Expert Re-Grading Reveals Broken Evaluations and
Near-Saturation of Leading Benchmarks"
John Sous from Yale posted a fairly solid study on how nearly all the physics benchmarks are broken, as they consistently mark correct answers as incorrect.
When hand grading instead, they found out that the models have actually already saturated the benchmarks which is a little bit scary.
I would be very surprised if any of the frontier models wasn't trained on all public physics benchmarks. Training data providers have been hiring people for exactly this task.
yeah, it would be almost shocking if an open source benchmark was NOT used ~somewhere in training. Perhaps just pre-training, but still.
Neural networks can be fairly robust to some mistakes in their training data, so maybe it doesn't even matter if some of them are incorrect. Who knows.
