Ask-E: An Environment for Calibrated Question Generation
Quick summary
arXiv:2608.06933v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Today, we improve models by training and evaluating them on problems at the frontier of their abilities. Creating such problems is itself a demanding task, requiring the ability to probe model limits and generalize beyond existing question distributions. It also means placing problems at a precise difficulty level, which requires understanding what it takes to solve them. In short, generating problems calibrated to a model's current frontier demands capability beyond it, an increasingly burdensome constraint as models improve. Our key insight i
