As claims about recursive self-improvement (RSI) and artificial general intelligence (AGI) proliferate, we ask a simple question: do frontier AI models have a sense of data, i.e., can they reliably select the right data for training? We introduce DataSense-Bench to study this capability through the fundamental problem …
In this paper, we argue that looped Transformers need their own residual connections to prevent performance degradation as the number of iterations grows. We observe that increasing loop iterations can reduce reasoning accuracy: noisy state updates overwrite correct intermediate deductions and even undo completed solut …
Looped Transformers introduce recurrent depth as a new scaling axis for LLMs: by repeatedly applying shared Transformer blocks, they increase effective depth without increasing parameter count. However, the benefits of looping remain unclear for large MoE LLMs under FLOPs-matched comparisons. The main reason is that th …
Audio deepfake detection (ADD) must remain effective when new spoofing attacks emerge after deployment. Emerging audio language model (ALM)-based ADD methods are built on predefined supervision from ground-truth labels or verified forensic rationales. However, this paradigm overlooks an ALM's own mistakes, which indica …
Audio language models (ALMs) are increasingly used for audio deepfake detection (ADD), yet existing benchmarks assess their verdicts or rationale plausibility without verifying the underlying acoustic evidence. To address this issue, we first introduce spoofing evidence-grounded audio reasoning (SEAR), a four-task AQA …
