The old tests are getting too easy. Tejal Patwardhan leads OpenAI’s frontier evals team, which is finding new ways to measure and forecast progress as models become more capable. She and host Andrew Mayne discuss why evals matter for research, how benchmarks can break or get gamed, and what models need to be judged on next.

  • Hello, I'm Andrew Main and welcome to the OpenAI podcast.

  • On today's episode, we're talking to the research lead, Tejal Pat Warden,

  • about the need to build frontier e-valves as old benchmarks get saturated.

  • Generally bad, benchmarking is bad.

  • How can we make these models useful for people in their real work?

  • We were really nervous because we were like, this human baseline is kind of hard.

  • We don't know if the model is going to beat it, but we should never underestimate the model.

  • Tejal, I have a question.

  • How did you end up where you were?

  • What brought you into OpenAI?

  • Oh, I thought we weren't going to start with this.

  • Tagel, I have a question for you.

  • What would you like to start with?

  • Can we start with, like, tell us, like, what you did when you started OpenAI?

  • And you can, like, work backwards.

  • Don't you want to talk about your early days?

  • No.

  • I grew up at OpenAI.

  • Tell me a bit about your journey here working inside artificial intelligence, inside OpenAI.

  • So I joined OpenAI in fall 23, and it was right after Chatchapiti had come out, GPG4 was out,
