New HLE-Verified benchmark corrects errors in Humanity's Last Exam

Researchers have developed HLE-Verified, a revised version of the Humanity's Last Exam (HLE) benchmark designed to address concerns about noisy data and biased evaluations. The new benchmark employs a two-stage validation and repair process, involving expert review and model-based cross-checks to ensure accuracy. HLE-Verified demonstrates an average accuracy gain of 7-10 percentage points when testing state-of-the-art language models, with significant improvements on items containing errors in the original problem statement or answer.
