Measuring AI’s capability to accelerate biological research

OpenAI introduces a real-world evaluation framework to measure how AI can accelerate biological research in the wet lab. Using GPT-5 to optimize a molecular cloning protocol, the work explores both the promise and risks of AI-assisted experimentation.
