DecisionBench: A Benchmark for Emergent Delegation in Long-Horizon Agentic Workflows
The paper introduces DecisionBench, a benchmark for emergent delegation in long-horizon agentic workflows. It evaluates various models and metrics to assess the performance of delegation strategies. The findings highlight significant unrealized potential for improving orchestration methods in AI workflows.
- ▪DecisionBench fixes a task suite and a peer-model pool for evaluating delegation in workflows.
- ▪The study reveals that mean end-task quality is similar across different awareness conditions.
- ▪A counterfactual ceiling indicates that perfect delegation could significantly outperform current measured performance.
