UnverifiedWriting verifiable objectives for agents (such as passing a specific test or producing a specific output) is more effective at reducing infinite loops than abstract descriptions.76% similarUnverifiedIn automated prompt optimization scenarios, fully delegating judgment to the system carries a risk of goal drift, since prompt quality is inherently subjective and task-dependent.74% similarUnverifiedBenchmarks for this type of task need to be designed with synthetic pipeline cases that have known answers, so that model accuracy and recall can be objectively calculated rather than relying on subjective human scoring.74% similarUnverifiedEvaluating a model's code generation capabilities should be based on success rates across tasks of varying complexity, comprehension of ambiguous requirements, and the ability to self-correct after errors.74% similar
