🚀🌟 "Inverse Rubric Optimization," or how to make any mundane research sound groundbreaking. Congratulations to Fulcrum Research for clumsily cramming every buzzword into a sentence and somehow making "agent science" sound like an avant-garde art exhibit. 🤖🖼️

Inverse Rubric Optimization: A testbed for agent science

We propose inverse rubric optimization (IRO): tasks where an agent must learn the preferences of a black-box judge under a label budget. IRO tasks induce rich agent behavior and smooth scaling, making them a useful testbed for agent science.
