'Humanity's Last Exam' benchmark is stumping top AI models - can you do any better?

SMRTR summary

A new benchmark, Humanity's Last Exam (HLE), tests AI knowledge limits with 3,000 expert-level questions across various subjects. Created by Scale AI and the Center for AI Safety, HLE addresses "benchmark saturation" as AI improves. Current AI models scored below 10% on HLE, compared to over 90% on some existing benchmarks. Researchers will use HLE to study AI systems and their limitations, with plans for public release.
