AI benchmarks
Benchmarks are tests for model skill. They predict coding and math better than they predict whether you get cited for CRM software.
Do not pick an engine for GEO because it won a leaderboard. Pick it because your customers open it.
Internal GEO “benchmarks” should be your prompt set, not MMLU.
Examples
- A model aces GPQA and still recommends a dead startup in your category.
