The results show that group identity shapes how LLMs aggregate information across agents, independently of its correctness, and identify a manipulation surface for multi-agent AI systems.
Inspired by distributed computing frameworks like Apache Spark, DISCO partitions long context across a fleet of Worker LLMs dedicated exclusively to parallel, localized grounding, establishing a highly efficient paradigm for robust long-context inference.
The Global State Model (GSM), a causal encoder--decoder architecture that concentrates the selection and aggregation of long-range information in the encoding stage, is introduced, offering a shared-state architecture for efficient language modeling.

SCALE (Selective Control of Adaptation via Local Entropy), an entropy-guided adaptation-strength-control method that freezes the pretrained model and the SFT delta and learns bounded token- and module-specific gates by minimizing predictive entropy alone is proposed.

Claims paired with AI-generated images are a rapidly growing form of misinformation. Existing automated fact-checking (AFC) methods mainly treat this as a provenance problem, detecting low-level synthesis artifacts to decide whether an image is AI-generated. However, such methods do not verify what human fact-checkers...

Teacher Alignment is proposed, which directly adapts the teacher toward the student's distribution without discarding data or degrading reasoning quality, and which significantly outperforms baselines across diverse reasoning benchmarks and distillation methods.

This work proposes MemSuit, a self-distillation framework in which a teacher summarizer, conditioned on observed query-answer pairs, produces utility-aware memory entries that a student learns to reproduce from the raw conversation alone, confirming the value of grounding memory in downstream utility.

This work forms long-horizon OPD as hierarchical supervision allocation as well as a coarse-to-fine framework that organizes supervision through Locate, Validate, and Refine and suggests that effective long-horizon distillation requires teaching at the right depth, the right decision, and the right token.

Downstream the effect is small: NER improves only on entities that contain words unseen in training, POS tagging and news classification do not change, and published Nepali tokenizers perform about as well.
It is shown that strengthening the model's ability to discriminate languages during pretraining reduces and, on some measures, closes this multilingual gap on continuous phonetic and higher-level linguistic measures, while preserving substantial cross-language sharing.

Leading multi-bit watermarking methods for language models encode messages by biasing the model's next-token probabilities, creating a trade-off between message recovery and text quality. Their decoders typically return the highest-scoring candidate from accumulated token-level evidence, without a certified abstention...

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.
