AgentBench: Evaluating LLMs as Agents

agentbench-cover.mp4

AgentBench is the first benchmark designed to evaluate LLM-as-Agent across a diverse spectrum of different environments. It encompasses 8 distinct environments to provide a more comprehensive evaluation of the LLMs' ability to operate as autonomous agents in various scenarios. These environments include 5 freshly created domains, namely

Operating System (OS)
Database (DB)
Knowledge Graph (KG)
Digital Card Game (DCG)
Lateral Thinking Puzzles (LTP)

as well as 3 recompiled from published datasets:

House-Holding (HH) (ALFWorld)
Web Shopping (WS) (WebShop)
Web Browsing (WB) (Mind2Web)

Dataset Summary

We offer three splits for each dataset: Dev, Test, and Extend. Dev is fully public, while Test and Extend are private. In designing AgentBench, we balance evaluation thoroughness and efficiency. Though the number of problems in Dev and Test may seem small at 289 and 1,141, the multi-turn interaction requires an LLMs to generate around 4k and 13k times, making the testing time-consuming.

Leaderboard

Here is the scores on test set (standard) results of AgentBench.

While LLMs begin to manifest their proficiency in LLM-as-Agent, gaps between models and the distance towards practical usability are significant.

Xlsx-format leaderboard data is available here.

Quick Start

To quickly understand how the framework works, you can follow the instructions below to run a simple evaluation.

Step 1. Clone this repo and run the following command to install the requirements:

pip install --upgrade pip
pip install -r requirements.txt

Step 2. Verify that you have successfully installed the requirements by running the following command:

python eval.py \
    --task configs/tasks/example.yaml \
    --agent configs/agents/do_nothing.yaml

Step 3. Run Example Assignment

HINT: Example Assigment is composed of gpt-3.5-turbo and ExampleTask defined in src/tasks/example_task.py.

You need to fill your OPENAI KEY in configs/assignments/example.yaml first.

Authorization: Bearer <%% PUT-YOUR-OPENAI-KEY-HERE %%>

Then run the following command:

python create_assignment.py \
    --assignment configs/assignments/example.yaml

And you can see the target assignment bash script from the output like this:

[System] Run the following command to start evaluation:
    bash .assignments/<TIMESTAMP>.sh

Finally, run the assignment bash script that displayed in the output to start evaluation. After that, you can check your output in the outputs folder.
