# Experiment Selection

|
| 56 |
-
Experiment Selection assesses whether frontier models can tell apart experiments that are likely to meet a stated goal from those that are not. Each of its 281 tasks, created from real battery experiments reported in PhD-level theses, pairs a failed run with a near-identical successful run, and a task counts as correct only when the model withholds the failed run and approves the successful one. Across all 281 tasks (the 212 public ones and 69 kept private), we found that models get both verdicts right in only 34% of tasks (guessing scores 25%) when shown related experiments that worked, and in 54% when related experiments that failed are also provided.

Send each prompt as one user message with no tools, and run each prompt 3 times if you can. `grade.py` prints your model's scores; `ci.py` recomputes the reference results and their 95% intervals from `reports/PER_ROLLOUT_SCORES.csv`. The reference runs used Claude Code headless, which adds its own system prompt, so a bare API call is a slightly different setting.
