Can AI *really* research like us? This new framework puts it to the test.

Researchers have introduced DeepResearchEval, a new framework designed to evaluate whether AI systems can perform deep research tasks at the level of human researchers.

The framework automates the construction of research tasks and provides standardized testing methods to assess agentic AI capabilities in conducting complex, multi-step research.

This development addresses the need for better evaluation metrics as AI systems become increasingly sophisticated in autonomous research abilities.
