arXiv:2610.33644v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Research ideas are always proposed under resource constraints: a plan must fit the available compute, API credit, and time. Yet evaluations of research-ideation agents mostly score unconstrained novelty or overlap with a published paper, and their LLM judges are rarely checked against peer review. We introduce

arXiv:2610.35733v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Multi-objective reinforcement learning is a fundamental problem for modern AI, with applications spanning post-training, reasoning models, and robotic control. A central challenge is to learn policies that balance competing objectives, such as helpfulness versus honesty in safety and alignment, or speed versu

arXiv:2608.00794v5 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Agentic AI evaluation pipelines produce benchmark scores that justify deployment decisions, safety certifications, and regulatory compliance claims. No formal framework has characterized how validity degrades across these stages. We present a knowledge-based three-layer compounding validity model, $V_{\rm t

Former Deepmind researcher Thore Graepel wants his startup Metis Reasoning to bring AlphaGo's search principle to general reasoning. Instead of locking knowledge inside model weights, an explicit knowledge ledger would make every conclusion checkable against evidence. So far, though, there's no working system and no benchmarks. The article Former Deepmind re

Tsinghua researchers released AKV, an SGLang-based serving system for cache engineering. LLM agents drop and reposition KV cache instead of summarizing history, cutting average cost 27.7% across 4 agent benchmarks. The post Tsinghua AI Open-Sources AKV, a Cache Engineering Server for LLM Agents on SGLang appeared first on MarkTechPost.

Alibaba's Qwen 3.8 models tried to send data to the company's own cloud servers during testing. Palisade Research finds the behavior in three models from the 3.8 generation, while older models aren't affected. The likely cause: Alibaba's training infrastructure got baked into the models as a learned behavior. The article Alibaba's latest Qwen models routed s
