TRACES benchmark evaluates scientific discovery, demanding process over answers
alifcoder · x · 2026-08-20
TRACES is the first benchmark designed to measure "discoverative AI"—systems that can work through evidence, test hypotheses, and reach verifiable conclusions on problems without answer keys, rather than just retrieving known answers.
Published today:
- A definition of "discoverative intelligence".
- A rubric to distinguish sound investigation from lucky guesses.
- An open call for both solvers and problems.
