Large Language Model (LLM) agents increasingly explore many candidate states of relational data in parallel, each of which should remain isolated, reproducible, and auditable, preferably through the same SQL interface used for ordinary data work. Existing tools support this requirement only partially: source-code version control does not scale to large datasets, whereas relational databases manage large data efficiently but rarely expose native branching, comparison, and merging. We present Git4Data, a database-native version-control layer for agentic workflows. Git4Data treats a database as a repository and a table as a versioned object, exposing Git-style operations (snapshot/tag, branch, diff, and merge with explicit conflict-resolution policies) through SQL extensions. Implemented in MatrixOne, a cloud-native relational database, Git4Data leverages immutable object storage and MVCC to make the cost of these operations proportional to the size of the change rather than the size of the data. On the BranchBench agentic branching workloads, Git4Data outperforms DoltDB by up to an order of magnitude. Overall, we believe this work sheds light on how relational databases can better support AI agents through efficient versioning.
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 of such models.

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.
Empirically, PRISM reduces the end-to-end time for data selection and model tuning to just 30% of conventional pipelines, and achieves this efficiency while simultaneously enhancing performance, surpassing models fine-tuned on the full dataset across eight multimodal and three language understanding benchmarks.
