Can AI Agents Synthesize Scientific Conclusions?

Researchers created SciConBench, a benchmark testing AI agents' ability to synthesize scientific conclusions from multiple sources, finding that even the best systems achieve only 33.7% factual accuracy. The study used clean-room evaluation to prevent data leakage and found that consumer-facing AI tools frequently generate incomplete or contradictory scientific summaries. The results highlight significant gaps in AI's ability to reliably synthesize complex scientific information for high-stakes decisions.
