AA-Omniscience: Knowledge and Hallucination Benchmark

A benchmark measuring factual recall and hallucination across various economically relevant domains.

Background

AA-Omniscience is a knowledge and hallucination benchmark that rewards accuracy, punishes bad guesses and provides a comprehensive view of which models produce factually reliable outputs across different domains.
The benchmark contains 6,000 questions across 6 major domains, derived from authoritative academic and industry sources and generated automatically using an LLM-based question generation agent to ensure unambiguity, scalability and factual precision

Methodology

All evaluations are conducted independently by Artificial Analysis. More information can be found on our Intelligence Benchmarking Methodology page.

AA-Omniscience: Evaluating Cross-Domain Knowledge Reliability in Large Language Models

Declan Jackson, William Keating, George Cameron, Micah Hill-Smith.

Highlights

  • Gemini 3.1 Pro Preview scores the highest on AA-Omniscience with a score of 33, followed by Gemini 3 Pro Preview (high) with a score of 16, and Claude Opus 4.6 (Adaptive Reasoning, Max Effort) with a score of 14
  • Gemini 3 Pro Preview (high) scores the highest on AA-Omniscience Accuracy with a score of 56%, followed by Gemini 3.1 Pro Preview with a score of 55%, and Gemini 3 Flash Preview (Reasoning) with a score of 54%
  • Claude 4.1 Opus (Reasoning) scores the lowest on AA-Omniscience Hallucination Rate with a score of 0%, followed by Claude 4 Opus (Reasoning) with a score of 0%, and Claude 4.5 Haiku (Non-reasoning) with a score of 25%

AA-Omniscience Index: Results

AA-Omniscience Index (higher is better) measures knowledge reliability and hallucination. It rewards correct answers, penalizes hallucinations, and has no penalty for refusing to answer. Scores range from -100 to 100, where 0 means as many correct as incorrect answers, and negative scores mean more incorrect than correct.

AA-Omniscience Hallucination Rate

AA-Omniscience Hallucination Rate

AA-Omniscience Hallucination Rate (lower is better) measures how often the model answers incorrectly when it should have refused or admitted to not knowing the answer. It is defined as the proportion of incorrect answers out of all non-correct responses, i.e. incorrect / (incorrect + partial answers + not attempted).
