OpenAI has released the new evaluation benchmark LifeSciBench, designed to measure AI systems’ capabilities in real-world scientific research scenarios. LifeSciBench is based on 750 expert-crafted tasks covering seven types of research workflows and seven biological domains, sourced from 173 researchers with PhDs and experience in biotechnology or pharmaceutical industries. The benchmark emphasizes the assessment of complex scientific abilities—including evidence integration, experimental design, data analysis, scientific reasoning, and scientific communication—rather than simple factual questions. Over 79% of the tasks require multi-step reasoning, averaging approximately four reasoning steps per question, and include 1,062 real-world scientific data attachments (such as papers, figures, sequence data, and structural files).
