eval — A repeatable test for AI quality — a set of tasks plus scoring — used the way software teams use test suites, because model output is too variable to judge by eyeballing.
benchmark — A standard public test set for comparing AI models — the shared scoreboards behind every "model X beats model Y" claim.
Why it matters
benchmarkA standard public test set for comparing AI models — the shared scoreboards behind every "model X beats model Y" claim.Full definition → contamination undermines every public score; this pilot runs a frontier model against confidential benchmarks inside a cryptographic environment so external evaluators can test without the questions ever leaking back into training.
