Chain of Thought Monitoring Can Fail Even When CoT Is Necessary

Chain of Thought (CoT) monitoring is used by frontier labs to detect misbehaviour of AI systems. Yet, its reliability remains poorly understood. We attribute this to the lack of a successful organizing principle that leads to generalizable conclusions about monitoring reliability in different regimes. Recent work attri...

CompanionSafe: From Multi-turn Safety Evaluation to Guardrails for AI Companions

AI companions provide users with emotional support and ongoing companionship, but their sustained relational interactions also introduce distinct safety risks. Prior work largely targets general harms or specific companion platforms and risk categories, while relying on manually collected conversations, limiting scalab...

LifeSearch: Benchmarking Deep Research Agents for Real-World Life and Productivity

Deep research (DR) agents address open-ended information needs through multi-step reasoning, long-horizon web search, and evidence synthesis. However, existing benchmarks primarily focus on academic research or synthetic tasks, leaving DR agents'capabilities in real-world life and professional productivity settings ins...

AM-Bench: Understanding Agents under Task Underspecification across Models and Harnesses

Ambiguous or incomplete task specifications complicate both execution and clarification for language-model agents. Yet agents' responses to these information gaps remain poorly characterized across models and execution harnesses. We present AM-Bench, a benchmark built from 48 tasks adapted from Terminal-Bench 2.0 and H...

One-Sided Verification Under Limited Expert Review

AI has become increasingly helpful in scientific discovery, yet human expert review remains essential for those problems without reliable automated evaluation, posing a fundamental challenge as candidate generation scales beyond available review capacity. This paper studies verification under limited human effort, wher...

ResearchFlow-Eval: Tracing the Execution Gap in End-to-End Multi-Claim Autoresearch

Autoresearch systems increasingly undertake entire research projects. In practice, scientific research requires systems to pursue multiple interdependent claims through a continuous, multi-stage workflow and revise experiments as evidence accumulates. Existing evaluations of autoresearch systems, however, typically sco...

AReaL-RSI: Adaptive Scaling and Coordination of Recursive Self-Improvement

AReaL-RSI is presented, a framework for organizing a persistent research team of agents without updating backbone LLM weights and evaluating outcomes and whole-system resource expenditure in terms of evaluated outcomes and whole-system resource expenditure.

WorkRover: Scaling Long-Horizon Cowork Agent Training Via Recursive Environment Evolution

WorkRover is introduced, a framework for training long-horizon cowork agents through recursive environment evolution that enables construction agents to jointly build and validate semantically aligned work contexts, executable tasks, and evidence-grounded verifiers, adapting their actions to workspace state and executi...

Can Agents Forget When Asked? A Benchmark for Memory Unlearning in LLM Agents

Long-term memory has become a core component of large language model (LLM) agents. As agents accumulate personal information over long-term use, users increasingly ask them to delete sensitive or outdated facts. A memory system should honor such requests. It should remove exactly what was requested and keep the rest of...

Beyond Black Boxes: Visual Grounding for Text Embeddings

In this paper, our goal is to represent text embeddings as sketches for three main reasons. First, to visualize text representation and to explore their potential their potential for AI explainability. Second, to investigate the potential benefits of the sketch-based representation for information retrieval. Third, to...

SHELDON: Reasoning through Dual Search over Hypothesis and Observation Spaces

Test-time scaling has enabled LLMs to solve increasingly complex reasoning, discovery, and optimization tasks. However, existing approaches often gather observations while seeking evidence for current hypotheses, then generate new hypotheses conditioned on those hypotheses and their associated evidence. This couples ob...

Seeing Depth but Choosing Cues in Vision-Language Models

Do vision-language models use depth information to judge which object is closer, or rely on image-plane cues? We investigate this question through controlled depth--cue conflicts, representation analysis, and interventions. Among the many image-plane cues relevant to depth perception, we focus on apparent size and vert...
