Autonomous Science Bench: Evaluating AI Agents for Autonomous Scientific Discovery

This is a real yardstick for agent performance on a meaningful problem: running experiments under budget and learning from results. The 67% best-case success rate is not impressive, which is the point. If you're building agents for lab automation or iterative design, this benchmark will show you where your system actually breaks. The gap between best and hardest tells you the problem space isn't solved.
