Researchers build an AI evaluation ecosystem simulation to probe a world of private benchmarks
sanmikoyejo · x · 2026-10-11
Sanmi Koyejo shares new work building a model and simulation of the AI evaluation ecosystem, studying how evaluations shape an ecosystem full of feedback loops.
- Counterfactual: What if every AI benchmark were private?
- The team built a simulation to explore this, since the feedback loops between evals and the ecosystem are hard to study empirically.
- Led by yashsdave, with paper/code linked — a methodology study of eval ecosystems rather than a leaderboard run.
