GRASP: Generating, Revising, and Assessing for Strategic Planning with Agentic AI

Empirical evaluations show that GRASP consistently establishes a new state-of-the-art frontier across diverse datasets, yielding substantial accuracy gains over direct LLM planners on Natural Plan Calendar Scheduling, ZebraLogic, and SciBench Math.

PrivDrift: Auditing User-Secret Leakage Under Topic Drift in Active LLM Conversations

PrivDrift is introduced, a benchmark for auditing whether user-disclosed secrets remain recoverable after conversational topic drift and persuasion-based probing, suggesting that privacy risk in active LLM contexts should be evaluated as a persistent behavioral failure mode rather than only as training-data memorizatio...

Self-Play Pretraining with Zero Data

Self-Play Pretraining with Zero Data is introduced, an initial proof-of-concept towards realizing a more general approach to pretraining, and whether zero-shot performance on natural data improves predictably with self-play compute is tested.

Augur: A Synthetic Decision Lab for Rehearsing Reactions to Product and Policy Changes

This work assembles Gold-50, fifty real product and policy episodes whose real-world outcome is known, adjudicated against the public record, and scores the five-way release verdict against it, finding most of the measured gap between frontier cloud models and open-weight models fine-tune and serve offline is attributa...

Learning to Ideate for Scientific Impact

This work constructs a large-scale dataset from over 100K computer science papers, and trains a goal-conditioned reward model to predict citation-impact labels from research goal and idea pairs, and uses this reward to align an idea generator through supervised fine-tuning followed by reinforcement learning.

iCoder-27B: Recursive AI-Led Development of Frontier Industrial Coding Model

The results chart an engineering path toward recursive self-improvement, in which humans distill the principles of model building, agents operationalize them through evidence-driven experimentation, and each generation of AI becomes a more capable architect of the next.

PartHackBench: Certified Equal-Progress Stress Tests for Partial-Credit Tool-Agent Evaluation

PartHackBench provides a certified control for testing whether evaluator credit changes while all benchmark-defined task-relevant progress remains fixed, and provides a certified control for testing whether evaluator credit changes while all benchmark-defined task-relevant progress remains fixed.

Delay-of-Gratification as a Multi-Agent Survival Micro-benchmark for Long-Horizon LLMs: Social Exposure, Personas, and Tool Use Budgets

Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly deployed as multi-turn agents that must sustain goals, use tools, and adapt to other agents over extended interactions. However, existing research lacks auditable, multi-turn, multi-factorial experiments that quantify LLM behavior under explicit constraints, with time-resol...
