Recently, researchers from FAIR Meta, HuggingFace, AutoGPT, and GenAI Meta worked together to address the challenges faced by general-purpose AI assistants in dealing with real-world problems that require basic skills such as reasoning and multimodal processing. They have launched theGAIA, which is a benchmark test designed to realize artificial general intelligence by locating human-level robustness.
GAIA focuses on real-world problems requiring reasoning and multimodal skills, emphasizing tasks that are challenging for both humans and advanced AI. Unlike closed systems, GAIA simulates real-life scenarios of AI assistant use, prioritizes quality through carefully crafted, non-manipulable problems, and demonstrates through plug-ins that humans in theGPT-4Superiority of the front end. The goal is to guide the design of the problem, ensure multi-step completion and prevent data contamination.

As LLMs move beyond current benchmarks, assessing their capabilities becomes increasingly challenging. The researchers concluded that despite the emphasis on complex tasks, human difficulty levels do not necessarily challenge LLMs.To address this challenge, they introduced GAIA, a general-purpose AI assistant focused on real-world problems that avoids the pitfalls of LLM assessment. By reflecting artificially crafted problems for AI assistant use cases, GAIA ensures practicality. By targeting open-ended generation in natural language processing, GAIA aims to redefine assessment benchmarks and drive the development of next-generation AI systems.
GAIA's proposed research methodology involves testing general-purpose AI assistants using a benchmark test created by GAIA. The benchmark test contains realistic questions that prioritize reasoning and practical skills that are designed by humans to prevent data contamination and allow for efficient and realistic assessments. The evaluation process uses an exact-match approach that aligns model answers to facts through system prompts. A developer set and 300 questions have been released to create leaderboards.The GAIA Benchmarking methodology is designed to evaluate open-ended generation in natural language processing and provide insights to drive the next generation of AI systems.
Benchmark tests conducted by GAIA revealed a significant performance gap between humans and GPT-4 when answering real questions. While humans achieved a success rate of 921 TP3T, the GPT-4 only scored 151 TP3T.However, GAIA's evaluation also revealed that the accuracy and use cases of LLMs can be improved through the use of tool APIs or web access. This provides an opportunity for collaboration between AI models and humans as well as advancements in the next generation of AI systems. Overall, the benchmark provides a clear ranking of AI assistants and highlights the need for further improvements in the performance of general-purpose AI assistants.
GAIA's benchmark test for evaluating general-purpose AI assistants on real-world problems showed that humans performed well against the plug-in-equipped GPT-4. It emphasizes the need for AI systems to exhibit human-like robustness on conceptually simple but complex problems. The simplicity, non-manipulability and interpretability of this benchmarking methodology make it an effective tool for realizing artificial general intelligence. In addition, the release of annotated problems and leaderboards aims to address open-ended generative evaluation challenges and other issues in natural language processing.
