PastForward: Faster On-Device GUI Agents via Computational Experience Reuse

Running GUI agents on edge devices can keep sensitive screens and interaction histories local, but the computational cost of inference at every action step makes deployment challenging. Existing GUI agent systems either perform full vision-language model (VLM) inference at each action step or reuse coarse-grained knowl...

READ-Bench: Benchmarking Historical Instance Retrieval for Time-Series Diagnosis

Time-series diagnostic systems rarely rely on retrieving relevant historical cases, and when they do, retrieval is evaluated only indirectly through downstream prediction. We introduce READ-Bench, a benchmark for historical-case retrieval across 12 diagnostic datasets, centered on multivariate time series, that defines...

Residual Streams Read, Recurrent States Remember: The Global Workspace in Mamba Models

Recurrent state provides a complementary carrier of workspace content, whose recovery, persistence and causal uses require separate measurements, and sign-guarded steering, which improves target top-five success over coordinate exchange on matched verbal-report trials in five models.

GameBoyWorlds: A Testbed for Self-Improvement in Embodied Video Games

GameBoyWorlds is introduced, a testbed for agentic self-improvement in video games and it is shown that contemporary approaches to self-improvement are lacking, with world modelling and autonomous skill discovery failing, and a novel strategy that uses curiosity-based exploration to write guides achieving only partial...

Memory as Middleware for Self-Improving AI Agents

AI agents are stateless across sessions by default and therefore operationally amnesic: each session begins with little durable knowledge of prior failures, repairs, preferences, or successful strategies. As a result, agents repeat the same mistakes and discard hard-won experience. The dominant fix is \emph{bespoke mem...

Toward Interactive Understanding of Code APIs

The PAU (Python API Understanding) benchmark is introduced, where models are provided with black-box, API-level access to code snippets, and inspiration is taken from the Asymmetric Actor Critic paradigm, frequently used in robot learning, to post-train models for interactive code understanding.

Contract monitoring: governing AI via separation of powers

This work proposes an AI safety framework that binds worker agents to contracts specifying their permitted actions, and shows how these contracts can be enforced and specified by assigning distinct responsibilities to monitor agents and judges, and asymmetric computational resources to monitors and workers.

EngramRAG: Dynamic Usage-Weighted Topology and Synaptic Consolidation for Multi-Hop Agentic Memory

The proposed EngramRAG is an adaptive memory architecture coupling a low-latency Waking State reflex with an asynchronous background Dreaming State consolidation cycle, and introduces triple-source hybrid retrieval fusing dense vectors, BM25, and U-PPR via dynamic Reciprocal Rank Fusion (RRF).

Receiver-Conditioned Latent Communication gives 94% CacheBack

CacheBack is a simple, robust, training-free instance of receiver conditioning based on the sender's attention weights that improves accuracy and reduces median task-completion latency on FanOutQA and shows comparable improvements across model families that span dense Transformers, Mamba-attention hybrids, and sliding-...

Reasoning Concentrates Errors, and Self-Consistency Never Notices

It is shown that reasoning concentrates a model's errors: the probability that two independently drawn wrong answers coincide rises in all ten dataset-scale comparisons, and in nine of nine after restricting both arms to the problems each gets wrong.

A Benchmark for LLM's Understanding of Middle School and High School Science Topics

Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly integrated into educational settings, yet educators lack robust, standards-aligned tools to evaluate their effectiveness in K-12 science contexts. Existing benchmarks predominantly assess general language or advanced scientific reasoning, leaving a critical gap in understan...

Who we become when we talk to machines

Professor Sherry Turkle’s new book, “Artificial Intimacy,” offers a withering critique of chatbots and the antisocial dynamics she believes they encourage.
