Safety & factuality

AA-Omniscience

by Artificial Analysis

What is AA-Omniscience? AA-Omniscience is a safety & factuality eval made by Artificial Analysis. A knowledge and hallucination benchmark that rewards a model for saying it does not know instead of guessing. Version 1.1 has 3,000 questions across six domains (science and maths, software engineering, finance, health, humanities and social sciences, law); a 300-question public subset is on Hugging Face and the rest stays private. The Omniscience Index runs from -100 to 100: correct answers add, wrong answers subtract, and abstentions score zero. Version 1.1 cut the set from 6,000 questions, removed saturated ones and fixed ambiguous ones, so its scores are not comparable with version 1.0.

What it tests
Factual recall across professional domains, and whether a model abstains rather than hallucinates when unsure.

Reviews are written by people who sign in with GitHub, one per account per eval. We can't confirm that each reviewer used the eval; we remove reviews that break our rules, never just for being negative, and we never add, buy or edit reviews. Averages, when shown, come only from these reviews.
