A new research paper proposes moving beyond accuracy-centric evaluation for AI agents, even when benchmarks saturate. The study uses CORE-Bench Hard, a computational reproducibility benchmark, to demonstrate the value of assessing agents on six other dimensions: construct validity, out-of-distribution generalizability, efficiency, reliability, model versus scaffold performance, and human-agent collaboration uplift. The authors introduce an improved benchmark, CORE-Bench v1.1, and an out-of-distribution task suite, CORE-Bench OOD, to facilitate this broader evaluation. Their findings suggest that even after accuracy saturation, these dimensions offer meaningful insights into agent performance, with human-agent collaboration showing a significant speedup. AI
