DISCO: Diversifying Sample Condensation for Efficient Model Evaluation

How a Simple Trick Is Making AI Testing Faster and Cheaper

Ever wondered why checking the performance of today’s AI models feels like buying a ticket for a space launch? Scientists have discovered a clever shortcut called DISCO that picks just the most “talkative” test questions—those that make different AIs disagree the most.
Imagine a group of friends guessing the ending of a mystery movie; the scenes that spark the biggest debates reveal the plot’s twists.
By focusing on those contentious moments, DISCO predicts a model’s overall score without running thousands of expensive GPU hours.
This means researchers can test new ideas faster, include more voices in AI development, and cut down the energy waste that comes with massive computations.
It’s a breakthrough that turns a costly marathon into a quick sprint, letting breakthroughs reach us sooner.
The next time you see a new AI brag about its scores, remember the hidden shortcut that made it possible—and imagine what else we could achieve when we work smarter, not harder.
