arXiv:2608.12346v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: This position paper argues that modern AI alignment methods – originally designed to prevent harmful output – are dual-use technologies that may easily be misused by malicious actors for censorship and manipulation. By mapping current…
arXiv:2601.19612v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Safe exploration is a key requirement for reinforcement learning (RL) agents to learn and adapt online, beyond controlled (e.g. simulated) environments. In this work, we tackle this challenge by utilizing suboptimal yet conservative policies (e.g.,…
arXiv:2608.12395v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We describe Research Assistant, an internal LLM-based system developed at AstraZeneca to help scientists and clinicians explore biomedical questions across a broad range of data sources. The system provides a chat-style interface that brings together…
arXiv:2608.12921v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The performance of large language model (LLM)-based multi-agent systems (MAS) largely depends on effective communication topologies. Existing topology generation methods, however, typically learn communication topologies through black-box optimization driven solely by task-level rewards. While effective,…
arXiv:2608.12426v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models are increasingly deployed in settings that require simultaneous adherence to multiple explicit constraints – reasoning structure, safety boundaries, output schemas. Individual constraints are handled proficiently, but the compositional regime, where many must…
arXiv:2608.13167v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: When visual evidence is occluded or chaotic, models should abstain. In this paper, we show that Vision-Language Models (VLMs) can internally distinguish when abstention is required, but fail to express it anyway. We introduce TRAPSBench,…
arXiv:2608.12428v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Memory is a core component of AI agents, enabling them to accumulate experience, maintain personalization, and adapt over long-term interactions. However, existing memory systems often remain fixed after development, limiting their ability to adapt their…
arXiv:2608.13341v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Infrared (IR) spectroscopy is widely used for chemical sensing, but extracting reliable chemical information from spectra remains challenging. Conventional interpretation is labor-intensive, relies on prior knowledge and reference spectra, and is difficult to scale, whereas…
arXiv:2608.12476v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Long-term agent memory is usually treated as select–store–retrieve, but retrieval does not decide whether contradictory, superseded, retracted, deleted, or stale records may support an outgoing claim. We introduce Governed Persistent Memory (GPM), an auditable bitemporal…
arXiv:2608.13520v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We study masking diffusion for discrete sampling and introduce a path-resolved measure of data geometry called the emph{unmasking growth complexity} ({textsf{UGC}xspace}). Its local increments directly control Kullback–Leibler (KL) discretization error, yielding a unified analysis of…
