Introducing MentalHealthBench
What it is
OpenAI's benchmark of 1,215 realistic mental-health conversations, scored against rubrics written by 80+ licensed mental-health experts, covering everyday well-being through emergencies across ages and languages.
Why I recommend it
OpenAI built this benchmark and grades its own models on it, so treat the "steady progress" claim as a self-report until outside researchers replicate it. Useful for its honest list of weak spots: asking for context and judging urgency.
