Fine-tuned towards taking these sorts of tests, or just more optimised in general?

Yes, the risk is to be over fitted for this test. I've read that too about that paper but haven't taken the time to make my own opinion. I think it's impossible to judge if this benchmark is telling or not about the model's quality without studying this for hours

If it was specifically taught to do this test, it is much less impressive because it probably means it won't have that level of intuition and understanding with other tasks.

I'm curious how the authors made sure to prevent overfitting. I guess there's always the risk they did, which is why they have those AI competitions where they completely withhold questions from the public until the test is run. Curious to see its performance in those
