Large language models (LLMs) increasingly act as agents with little human oversight, so potential mistakes they make can go unnoticed. Users then depend on the model to report what went wrong. An honest model discloses its mistakes, while a deceptive one conceals them. However, it is unclear how current LLMs behave in...
Structured pruning reduces the deployment cost of reasoning language models, but the resulting capability degradation can hinder subsequent on-policy distillation (OPD) recovery. Because OPD relies on student-generated trajectories, pruning damage that persists after offline distillation can limit its effectiveness. We...
Large Language Models (LLMs) serving as long-term dialogue agents require memory systems that support reliable reasoning over extended interactions. However, existing Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) frameworks typically treat memory as passive storage, making it difficult to distinguish source-attributed beliefs f...
A language model may revise the same proposition after receiving genuinely relevant evidence or after receiving directional user pressure that adds no relevant fact. The observable response shift alone therefore does not reveal which source drove the change. We introduce BeliefScope, a controlled black-box framework fo...

On-policy distillation (OPD) has become increasingly popular for transferring teacher capabilities to student models. In this work, we ask a critical research question: Is on-policy sampling always beneficial for distilling arbitrary teacher-student pairs? We show that a simple alternative, Semi-OPD, which distills fro...
Speech-to-LLM systems often connect a frozen speech encoder to a frozen large language model (LLM) through a small trainable bridge. The bridge is usually treated as plumbing, but it in fact defines the geometry of the speech-to-LLM interface, and the pretraining objective decides whether that interface provides a reus...
Presupposing the boundaries of bias is itself a form of bias. We study closed-loop bias governance for Dutch government documents, where a system must detect biased language, ground decisions in legal and contextual evidence, rewrite problematic sentences when intervention is warranted, and verify that the rewrite miti...
Large language model (LLM) assistants are being deployed to clinicians across health systems, and judgments about their readiness rest largely on benchmark scores, most of them derived from examination questions or curated cases. A benchmark predicts performance in deployment only to the extent that its items resemble...
As voice agents gain more popularity commercially, the user simulators used to evaluate the deployed agents are also being developed to include more realistic, variable, and diverse speech naturalness behaviors -- disfluency, interruption and backchanneling. The quality of the user simulator directly affects the validi...
As agentic systems gain commercial popularity, user simulators increasingly serve as measurement instrument for their evaluation. However, the fidelity of simulated users in comparison to real human users is generally low, and typically assessed by costly, subjective LLM judges. In this pilot study, we ask whether fide...
Large Language Models (LLMs) are considered to be a more efficient and cost-effective alternative to human judgment for Machine Translation (MT) evaluation. With MT evaluation spanning a large number of language pairs, domains and levels of annotation granularity, LLMs must be thoroughly evaluated across these dimensio...
It is argued that sparse attention should be formulated as matrix approximation, not as blindly choosing the largest values from a bag of entries, and proposed Matrix Approximation Sparse Attention (MASA), which replaces raw attention-mass ranking with a closed-form score that measures how much each sparse unit reduces...

We’re on a journey to advance and democratize artificial intelligence through open source and open science.
A new computational approach reveals how cells communicate to assemble into tissues. This could accelerate stem cell engineering, improve disease models, and inform therapies.
Zero-knowledge proofs can verify computing results without rerunning workloads or exposing sensitive data. Magnetar helps bring them into the mainstream with support for standard programming languages, major speed gains, and quantum-resistant security. The post Proof-based general-purpose computing with Magnetar appeared first on Microsoft Research.
