Top solve rate is currently 24% with Opus 4.8... What's a competent human supposed to score?

presumably whatever the top model uses and then some, since the human can use the model.
I wonder if a model could score higher if it had a human at its disposal?

Maybe models should ask for human-in-the-loop input, as a matter of convention.

A model that can ask questions or ask for help when in doubt is indeed a major feat. None of the current frontier models can do that.

With a human at its disposal, it could probably count the number of R's in strawberry!
In all seriousness though, adding capabilities should not normally reduce the effectiveness of a model (within reason: don't pollute the context window with millions of useless tools).

I mean these were all solved before I assume so 100% not the same human ofc but models are expected to be good at a variety of code bases while human can specialize in one and learn. I think it's fair to compare to an individual that is used to working on a product.
I'm more interested in how fable would do
