  "content": "Published evaluations of AI research agents fall mainly into two kinds. Benchmarks such as MLE-bench, RE-Bench and PaperBench test agents on narrow tasks with verifiable scores or on replicating known results, which leaves out choosing questions, judging what is publishable and recovering from dead ends. The other kind submits AI-generated papers to blind peer review, whose verdicts are noisy, vary between reviewers and say little about how a paper was produced. If neither kind measures open-ended research directly and few studies of other kinds exist, the direct evidence on open-ended research capability is thin.",
