ForecastBench Baseline - Scratchpad - Dataset: leaderboard
ForecastBench Baseline leaderboard, where the ForecastBench team runs models out of the box, scratchpad prompt (step-by-step reasoning before the probability). Dataset component: questions generated automatically from time-series data sources; difficulty-adjusted Brier Index on 0-100 (higher is better; 50 equals always forecasting 0.5). Superforecaster and public medians, naive baselines and LLM crowds are excluded.
Metric: Dataset Brier Index (difficulty-adjusted, higher is better). Source: www.forecastbench.org. Saturation forecast: Estimated already saturated. 36 models tracked.
