New benchmark xDailyBench tests LLMs on real-world professional consultation tasks

Researchers have introduced xDailyBench, a new benchmark designed to evaluate large language models (LLMs) on their ability to handle real-life, professional consultation tasks. The benchmark consists of 248 tasks across 51 scenarios, focusing on requests that users actually make, which often involve inferring unstated needs from context. Evaluations of 11 frontier models revealed that while the best models achieved a 75.6% task-level score, all models struggled significantly more with implicit requirements than explicit ones, highlighting this as a key area for improvement.

IMPACT Highlights a persistent bottleneck in LLM performance for real-world, implicit user needs, guiding future model development.

    xDailyBench: Benchmarking LLMs on Professional Consultation for Real-Life Problems

    arXiv:2609.07784v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly used for everyday assistance, yet existing benchmarks only partially reflect the requests users naturally make in practice. Real-world requests are often open-ended, casually specified, …
