AI will be ready to score full marks on one of the world's most challenging knowledge tests branded Humanity's Last Exam (HLE) in a matter of months, developers claim. And full marks are on the horizon, according to Calvin Zhang, the research lead at Scale, the AI company behind HLE. Anthropic - the company behind the Claude AI system - has achieved a score of 34.2 per cent in HLE and is improving its marks at a rapid pace. It means that if the technology cracks the HLE, it will need to be tested on questions no human knows the answer to in future. As AI approaches the stage where it can master human-made tests, expanding beyond the existing limits of human knowledge has increasingly become the main focus of developers, Ms Olszewska added.
