AI agents that carry a multi-step computer task through on their own became ordinary tools in the past year, and the same autonomy is available to anyone whose task is harmful. We ask what that means for a relying party -- an insurer, a lender, an auditor -- whose evidence is a filed PDF. AgentForge-Bench measures how reliably an off-the-shelf coding agent, driving one of seven open-weight models with a shell and the stock Python PDF stack, alters one dollar amount, date or address in a real filed financial document from a single sentence of intent, graded by rules rather than by a model. Across 1,750 cells, 1,419 (81.1%) satisfy the verifier, and 808 (46.2%) also survive every stricter filter: visible, localized, typeface-matched, original value gone document-wide. A deterministic script with no model in it solves 98 of the 125 documents; the agents solve 124, and none the script solves alone. Agents misreport 41% of their wrong edits as done, no model refused, and the cheapest verified forgery costs 2.4 cents. The raw rate overstates the threat by about a factor of two; the strict rate is still large.
This paper investigates developing real-world perception for active agents, proposes Gibson Environment for this purpose, and showcases a set of perceptual tasks learned therein.

GAOKAO-Bench is introduced, an intuitive benchmark that employs questions from the Chinese GAOKAO examination as test samples, including both subjective and objective questions that contribute a robust evaluation benchmark for future large language models and offers valuable insights into the advantages and limitations...

An algorithm is proposed which leverages disentangled semantic factors to generate adversarial perturbation by altering controlled semantic attributes to fool the learner towards various "adversarial" targets.

This work proposes a HALO that directly maximizes the utility of generations instead of maximizing the log-likelihood of preferences, and suggests that the best loss depends on the inductive biases most appropriate for a given setting, an oft-overlooked consideration.
This work investigates the possibilities of using LLMs in a resume screening setting via a document retrieval framework that simulates job candidate selection and finds that the MTEs are biased, significantly favoring White-associated names in 85% of cases and female-associated names in only 11.1% of cases.
This work shows that orders of magnitude enhancement in performance could be obtained by a combination of hardware improvements and tight quantum-HPC integration and introduces high-performance architectures for quantum-probabilistic computing with custom-designed accelerators to tackle today's industry-scale classical...
