Measuring how AI agents handle everyday wet-lab science

Evaluating AI agents on practical wet-lab data tasks is an important step toward assessing both their utility in scientific research and potential biosecurity risks.

OpenAI has introduced a new 100-task benchmark called BioBasicsBench. The benchmark is designed to evaluate how effectively AI agents can interpret raw experimental data and manage routine wet-lab scientific tasks.
