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...

Just Ask Jev: Reinforcement Learning for Calibrated Decisions as a Zero-Shot Detector of AI Alignment Failures

RLCDAlignBench is presented, which benchmarks Jev on ten alignment failures: sycophancy, jailbreaks, deception, prompt injection, hallucination, privacy violation, social bias, reward hacking, concealing uncertainty, and power seeking.

Policy as Code: A Coroutine-Bridge Harness for Fast-Reasoning Reliability on CAR-bench

CAR-bench evaluates whether tool-using agents stay reliable under real-world uncertainty, executing every tool inside the evaluator so that each tool-result exchange is a separate agent round-trip. A conventional next-action agent can batch parallel tool calls, but a chain of dependent calls costs it one model call per...

MeshHeal: Two-Timescale Self-Healing for Gray Failures in Decentralized LLM Agent Networks

This work introduces MeshHeal, a fully decentralized self-healing framework that couples ability-matched peer review across two timescales and introduces Model-Backed MAS Evaluation, which ties ability assignments to execution models, since prompt-based ability assignments alone can leave routing errors hidden.

When Should Forecasting Agents Reason? Behavioral Stress Tests for Reliability Routing

A behavioral stress test showing that more reasoning is not always better; forecasting agents should first estimate which evidence source deserves control, routing policies should themselves adapt under auditable constraints, and reproducibility artifacts are available at https://github.com/louiswang524/forcastagent.

WARP: Wasserstein-Aligned RAG for Population Opinions

WARP is introduced, a family of post-retrieval algorithms that calibrate retrieved evidence to the population's opinion distribution, and its domain-matched variants reduce distributional error by at least 43% with sub-second latency.

Proof-based general-purpose computing with Magnetar

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.
