DishwasherBench lets people and models test loading a simulated dishwasher

github.com 17 min read Editor score 7/10

The benchmark simulates loading a Bosch dishwasher with rigid-body physics and lets models act through MCP; episodes are deterministic and replayable. It offers a concrete physical task for evaluating model tool use against the same environment people can play.

What: DishwasherBench is a browser-playable dishwasher-loading simulation designed to benchmark language models and people.
How: It models a Bosch dishwasher with rigid-body loading and a simulated wash; episodes can be replayed and verified.
Why it matters: Shared actions let people and models test loading strategies against the same deterministic environment.

Browser and agent interfaces send loading actions through the session layer to the scored wash. Sketched from the article's own text.
