    Question

    Given the success of the Allen Institutes Aristo at 8th grade science exams - where it answered more than 90% of the questions correctly - it begs a follow up question; when will it be able to graduate high school? More specifically, when will it get to an A on a multiple choice 12th grade science exam?

    By the end of 2020, will an AI receive an A on a 12th grade science exam?

    Aristo, as reported in the arXiv preprint, has already achieved a score of 83.54 on the Regents 12th grade exam.

    Resolution criteria: - Credible media reports or an arXiv paper - If no such experiment is run, this question will resolve ambiguously.

    Related Question: By 2021, will a neural model reach >=70% performance on a high school mathematics exam?
