Abstract
This paper critically examines the limitations of generative AI in medicine and challenges the popular narrative that multimodality alone can rescue its current shortcomings. It argues for a shift toward evidence-based AI grounded in structured, high-quality clinical data rather than unsupported generation. Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) is presented as a promising framework for improving grounding, attribution, and explainability, though its clinical use remains underdeveloped. The paper also highlights the risks of overreliance on commercial cloud infrastructure, particularly with respect to cost, dependency, and research autonomy. It calls for foundational research in multimodal retrieval and specialized models to enable AI systems that are safe, explainable, clinically grounded, and genuinely useful in medicine.
GAOKAO-Bench is introduced, an intuitive benchmark that employs questions from the Chinese GAOKAO examination as test samples, including both subjective and objective questions that contribute a robust evaluation benchmark for future large language models and offers valuable insights into the advantages and limitations...

This work investigates the possibilities of using LLMs in a resume screening setting via a document retrieval framework that simulates job candidate selection and finds that the MTEs are biased, significantly favoring White-associated names in 85% of cases and female-associated names in only 11.1% of cases.
This work shows that orders of magnitude enhancement in performance could be obtained by a combination of hardware improvements and tight quantum-HPC integration and introduces high-performance architectures for quantum-probabilistic computing with custom-designed accelerators to tackle today's industry-scale classical...

This paper presents a comprehensive overview of the Ultralytics YOLO family, emphasizing architectural evolution, benchmarking, deployment, and emerging directions from YOLOv5 through YOLO27, and examines detection, segmentation, depth, classification, pose, oriented detection, tracking, export, quantization, and deplo...
This work revisits schema linking when using the latest generation of large language models (LLMs) and finds empirically that newer models are adept at utilizing relevant schema elements during generation even in the presence of large numbers of irrelevant ones.

A novel threat is unveiled in which attackers steer the RAG system's response by injecting malicious passages into its knowledge base, enabling the attacker to steer the response without altering the user input or modifying the RAG weights.
