Benchmarking AI Agents: What Metrics Really Matter?
Evaluating AI agents goes beyond accuracy—metrics must reflect real-world performance, decision quality, and adaptability.
Some common metrics include task completion rate, latency, adaptability under noise, decision consistency, and memory recall accuracy. In multi-agent systems, coordination efficiency and conflict resolution success are also vital.
Effective benchmarking requires scenario diversity and reproducible environments. OpenAI Gym, Unity ML-Agents, and custom simulators provide flexible platforms to run controlled tests.

Combine quantitative metrics with qualitative review—human-in-the-loop evaluations catch blind spots metrics often miss.
