Recent video generation models can produce highly realistic videos from natural language instructions, with visual quality approaching cinematic standards. Existing evaluation benchmarks, however, predominantly assess visual quality, aesthetic appeal and physical plausibility, while paying limited attention to text, an …

Agentic reinforcement learning (RL) has emerged as a powerful approach for training large language model agents on multi-step tasks, yet reliance on terminal outcome rewards creates two credit-assignment problems, particularly in long-horizon tasks. First, same-outcome rollout groups provide no learning signal from ter …

Large language models (LLMs) have made misinformation inexpensive to produce but not to verify, creating a growing asymmetry in the information ecosystem. Under tight time, labor, and budget constraints, media organizations, platforms, and fact-checkers rely on screening to prioritize which content to verify. We introd …

LLM agents increasingly keep working after a task succeeds as they resume after compaction or take over handoffs. Their finished work keeps receiving follow-up input that sometimes falsely accuses it for later failures. We call an agent's acceptance of such a false accusation gaslight sycophancy, and destructive over-c …
