Benchmark Performance and Scaling Laws
Benchmark performance is crucial for measuring improvement by adding more compute and data, as it narrows down the set of questions and consequently the set of answers sought.

LLMs excel at memorizing static programs and fetching appropriate solutions rather than engaging in on-the-fly program synthesis.
