Large language models (LLMs) increasingly support science, but they can also convert hazardous scientific knowledge into actionable misuse guidance. Existing benchmarks often rely on templated queries disconnected from real-world hazards, and employ LLM-as-a-Judge paradigms without domain grounding.

Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly embedded in AI for Science (AI4Science) workflows, from scientific question answering and literature analysis to laboratory planning and autonomous discovery. This progress creates an urgent need for safety benchmarks that evaluate not only scientific competence, but also whether models recognize and avoid risks in high-stakes scientific contexts.
DRYLAB‑Bench is a new benchmark that measures the biosecurity risk of large language models (LLMs) when they design biological mutations. It presents 30 hazardous mutation‑design scenarios and evaluates LLMs in a multi‑round, tool‑augmented setting, scoring designs against 187,695 empirical wet‑lab measurements using a Biosecurity Risk Score. Initial tests on 15 frontier models show that even without tools, a majority of designs exceed average risk, and tool use further amplifies the threat.
