AI Giants Fail Real-World Application Test, Scoring Below 25%

A new benchmark developed by researchers at the University of California, Berkeley, has revealed that leading AI models struggle with real-world applications, scoring below 25%. OpenAI's GPT-5.5 achieved the highest score with a 24% pass rate, followed closely by Anthropic's Claude Fable 5 at 22%. Other prominent models like Google Gemini, DeepSeek, and Grok scored below 16% on tasks ranging from audio processing to theoretical physics. AI

IMPACT Highlights significant limitations in current AI capabilities for real-world tasks, suggesting a gap between theoretical performance and practical application.

RANK_REASON The cluster reports on a new benchmark and its results, which is a research output from a university.
