An Amazon paper says public benchmarks that test AI models on tax, legal and business rules often mark correct answers wrong, because their answer keys or grading code contain mistakes.

The authors audited nine benchmarks. They report that LegalBench's tax scorer deleted decimal points, reading $259,487.13 as 25,948,713. After fixing the grading, the number of accepted answers for each of three models rose from 8 or 9 to between 87 and 91 out of 96.
