🔥 TOP — lo que SÍ o SÍ tenés que ver

  • [Claude Managed Agents: permission policies con auto] — Nuevo modo donde el server evalúa cada tool call (agente o MCP) y decide correr, denegar o pausar para aprobación; los eventos agent.tool_use y agent.mcp_tool_use ahora reportan el resultado en un campo evaluation junto a evaluated_permission. Es la pieza que faltaba para meter agentes en producción sin bloquear el flow con human-in-the-loop manual. link
  • [Subagents vs Agent Skills: Executing Reusable Knowledge for Long-Horizon Agentic Tasks] — Paper que compara cargar skill packages en el contexto vs invocarlos como subagentes; muestra que a medida que crece el horizonte de tarea lo primero se vuelve frágil porque el razonamiento se degrada al acumular contexto.

  • OpenDiscoveryTrace: Process Traces for Evaluating AI Scientist Workflows
    arxiv-ai· 11-sept

    arXiv:2609.09203v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Existing benchmarks for autonomous AI scientists evaluate only final outputs---generated code, hypotheses, or papers---yet discard the reasoning process by which those outputs were obtained. This makes it impossible to audit scientific methodology, diagnose failure modes, or distinguish systematic reasoning from fortunate guessing. We present \textbf{OpenDiscoveryTrace}, a public dataset of 558 complete AI scientific agent trajectories that captures how models reason, not just what they produce. Each trajectory records a structured 9-field-per-step trace---including thoughts, tool calls, observations, errors, revision triggers, and self-reported confidence---as models execute 124 scientific tasks spanning drug discovery, materials science, g…

  • Adaptive Entangled Game Modules in Artificial General Intelligence
    arxiv-ai· 11-sept

    arXiv:2609.09226v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We introduce a probability-wave framework for modeling the collective behavior of interacting adaptive agents, deriving testable eigenmodes through a generalized behavioral intelligence (GBI) nonlocal probability-wave equation. This framework captures a broad range of human intelligence behaviors with analytical mechanisms and offers an indirect method to examine the Liu-Chen-Ao (LCA) hypothesis of nonlocal entangled nerve fibers in the brain through collective trader behaviors. Our empirical analysis of Chinese intraday stock market data demonstrates that adaptive entangled game modes explain 82-94% (89% overall) of observed decision patterns, a sharp contrast to the predictions of neoclassical finance based on independent rational agents. …

  • Subagents vs Agent Skills: Executing Reusable Knowledge for Long-Horizon Agentic Tasks
    arxiv-ai· 11-sept

    arXiv:2609.09233v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: How can language model agents effectively leverage libraries of reusable knowledge to solve long-horizon tasks? Recent work has increasingly focused on agent skills: reusable capabilities represented as skill packages, i.e., multi-file bundles containing instructions, scripts, and other resources that help agents perform specific tasks. Agent skills are typically executed by loading their skill instructions into an agent's context and relying on the agent to follow them. As task horizons grow, however, this approach becomes increasingly brittle, because reasoning quality degrades as more information accumulates in the context window. We investigate an alternative approach in which skill packages are instead invoked as subagents. Rather than …

  • Gradland: On Phenomenal Experience, Differentiated Across Many Dimensions
    arxiv-ai· 11-sept

    arXiv:2609.09306v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: This paper investigates the hypothesis that the first-order structure of physical interactions, i.e. gradients or Jacobians, characterizes the structure of phenomenal experience. It does so in an idealized world inhabited by neural networks, Gradland, where the physics are known and the functions are (mostly) differentiable. The paper introduces two measures of Jacobian structure: effective rank and cohesion, based on Kirchhoff complexity. Applying the measures to a series of worked examples shows the hypothesis accounts for: (1) the duration of experience, that it can prolong over hundreds of milliseconds; (2) the difference between what is experienced vividly and obscurely; (3) the experience of texture; (4) the blooming buzzing confusion …

  • An Autonomous GeoAI Agent for Arctic Eco-Navigation
    arxiv-ai· 11-sept

    arXiv:2609.09374v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Arctic maritime navigation is becoming increasingly important as changing sea-ice conditions expand seasonal accessibility while simultaneously introducing substantial operational, environmental, and community risks. Arctic route planning is inherently a multi-criteria problem: routes that improve vessel safety or efficiency may increase exposure to sea ice, sensitive ecosystems, or nearby communities. Existing routing methods prioritize travel time, fuel use, and navigational risk, often overlooking ecological and community impacts. We introduce a human-in-the-loop, multi-agent GeoAI system for Arctic eco-navigation that integrates operational, physical, ecological, and community-related criteria within a unified routing framework. Multiple…

  • The Menu Is an Execution Prior: State-Path Tool Menus for Online Agents
    arxiv-ai· 11-sept

    arXiv:2609.09395v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Language models act through tools, yet practical agents face libraries containing thousands of interfaces. We introduce the tool menu as the short, ordered subset of available tools shown to an agent before execution. The agent can call only tools in this menu. Multi-step tasks require the final action and the prerequisite tools that create its inputs in a usable order. Current constructors rank tools by request relevance, which can surface the final action while omitting or delaying less obvious producers. We introduce the state path, a pre-execution route from the observable request state to the desired outcome, and propose State-Path Tool Menu to learn it. Our framework treats the menu as an execution prior over these routes. Its encoder …

  • Decision-Focused Active Learning for Scale-Aware Critical-Materials Recovery
    arxiv-ai· 11-sept

    arXiv:2609.09413v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Choosing a recovery process for scale-up requires connecting laboratory results with product requirements, process costs, and scale effects. We analyze records from Pacific Northwest National Laboratory's Computer Intelligence for Critical Element Recovery and Optimization (CICERO) workflow for autonomous selective precipitation. Active learning uses prior results to choose experiments. In a conditional retrospective benchmark with fitted models and recycled neodymium-iron-boron (NdFeB) magnet records, active learning finds the best recorded result with fewer experiments than nonadaptive space filling. Enrichment is the selected rare-earth-to-iron ratio relative to that in the feed. Adaptive policies reach the recorded enrichment maximum by …

  • Valerant: An Automatic Navigable Game Map Generator via Action-Conditioned World Model Exploration
    arxiv-ai· 11-sept

    arXiv:2609.09418v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: World Action Models (WAMs) couple predictive world modeling with action generation, allowing anticipated future states to guide agent behavior. Although WAMs are rapidly advancing embodied AI, general-purpose counterparts remain largely unexplored in games. Existing game-oriented approaches often combine action-conditioned world models with external policies and reward functions to realize WAM-like decision-making, yet they operate mainly in 2D visual observation space and do not instantiate persistent 3D geometry. Extending this paradigm to 3D games introduces a distinct challenge. In autonomous driving and robotics, the physical environment exists independently of the model, providing a persistent 3D world in which selected actions can be …

  • XAI-Arena: Can LLMs Assess the Quality of XAI Explanations?
    arxiv-ai· 11-sept

    arXiv:2609.09428v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Evaluating the quality of explanations produced by explainable AI (XAI) methods remains challenging because existing approaches often rely on subjective human judgment, limiting reproducibility, scalability, and comparability between studies. We examine whether LLMs can serve as a reproducible and scalable mechanism to make comparative assessments of the quality of XAI explanations. We introduce XAI-Arena, an LLM-as-a-judge framework for scalable, reproducible, multidimensional, and stakeholder-sensitive evaluation of XAI explanation quality. XAI-Arena then allows us to compare XAI explanations along various dimensions, namely, perceived simplicity, clarity, task adequacy, trust calibration, actionability, transparency, faithfulness, and ove…

  • Do Agents Know When They Succeed? Calibrating Agent Confidence from Internal Representations
    arxiv-ai· 11-sept

    arXiv:2609.09448v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: As agentic systems getting adopted rapidly in safety critical applications, it is vital to measure the confidence associated with the agentic actions. In comparison to the traditional machine learning systems, agentic workflows have complex failure modes with planning, tool invocation and dynamic environment interactions. In this paper, we investigate whether model's internal representations provide stronger signals of eventual task success in multi-turn agentic setups. We introduce two complementary methods: Latent Trajectory Dynamics (LTD), which summarizes changes in residual-stream representations across an an interaction trajectory, and the Action Representation Probe (ARP), which predicts success from representations formed at action d…

  • Fragments: September 8
    martin-fowler· 08-sept

    Christian Catalini says we’re in a situation where we are vastly reducing the cost of generating things, but not the cost of verifying them:. This explains why the first major AI products appeared in chat, image generation, and code assistance. Not because these were the hardest human problems, but because their outputs were relatively easy to inspect. A user can judge the tone of a message, look at an image, or run a test on a piece of code. […] The old automation boundary was routine versus non-routine work. The new boundary is increasingly measurable versus non-measurable work. The issue is then over how well you can measure something. In our profession, we know there’s a big difference between how many lines of code we write and how productive we are, and we’ve seen a regular failure …
