Evaluating AI models on predictions the future will grade
Benchmarks leak. Once a test set is public, it ends up in the next model’s training data and the score stops meaning what it meant. ModelMirror builds evaluations that cannot leak by construction: models predict real-world events before they happen, the predictions are committed to a public, timestamped ledger, and the world supplies the answer key.
How we work
- Pre-registration by timestamp. Predictions are committed to a public git repository before outcomes exist. What a model knew is fixed by when it wrote, not by restricting what it could read.
- A public ledger. Every prediction, evaluation, and outcome is a file in a public repository. Verification needs no trust in us.
- Cross-only evaluation. Several frontier models compete; each grades the others and never itself.
- Underclaiming. Small samples are reported as small samples. Nothing is published as a result until it has resolved under the frozen process.
Projects
- Three frontier models predict U.S. Supreme Court events — cert grants, votes, and reasoning — on a public ledger that begins with the October 2026 term.Live. First forward predictions resolve in October 2026.
