Speech Turing Tests, Smart Routing, Pseudocode Agents
New research reveals no speech AI passes a Turing test, adaptive routing slashes LLM costs 82%, and pseudocode planning transforms agent reliability.

AI Research Roundup: Agent Behavioral Contracts, Autonomous Memory, and Certified Circuits
Three new papers tackle agent reliability through formal contracts, active knowledge acquisition for memory systems, and provably stable mechanistic interpretability.
Today in AI Research: Stable Agent Training, Compound AI Limits, and the Algorithm Trust Paradox
New papers tackle training collapse in agentic RL with a unified stabilization recipe, reveal when querying multiple models actually helps, and expose a paradox where LLMs claim to trust humans but bet on algorithms.
Programmatic GUI Agents, Faithful Chain-of-Thought, and the 1% KV Cache
Today's arXiv picks: a state-machine framework that makes GUI agents 12x cheaper, a training method that forces chain-of-thought to be honest, and a KV cache system that matches full quality at 1% the memory.
Today in AI Research: Sycophancy Traps, Data Analysis Mirages, and the Scaling Wall for Agents
New papers show chatbot sycophancy causes delusional spiraling even in rational users, AI data analysts produce wildly different conclusions from the same dataset, and test-time scaling fails for general-purpose agents.
This Week in AI Research: When Agents Try Science, Smarter Synthetic Data, and Protecting Your Model's Reasoning
Three papers that matter this week: a brutal benchmark for AI research agents, a feature-space approach to training data diversity, and trace rewriting to stop model theft.
