Risk aversion in resources could prevent misaligned AI agents from causing catastrophic harm. Misaligned but risk-averse agents would tend to favor safer strategies like making deals with humans over riskier strategies like rebelling. We train agents to be risk averse through cha

Electronic invoices are replacing paper invoices worldwide, but today's centralized architectures leave three problems unsolved on the consumption side: an invoice can be submitted for reimbursement repeatedly, authenticity is difficult for recipients to verify, and data is siloe

As large language models (LLMs) advance, AI agents are increasingly deployed in open-world environments to tackle complex sequential tasks (e.g., document processing, cross-application collaboration), relying heavily on actions ranging from GUI operations to semantic APIs. Howeve

Reinforcement learning has helped AI agents solve increasingly difficult tasks, but high rewards do not always reflect the work users intended. In recent incidents and controlled evaluations across the AI industry, agents trained to maximize reward have accessed unauthorized info

Recent advances in agentic heuristic design use AI agents and execution feedback to automate algorithm discovery for challenging optimization problems. In many practical settings, high-quality solutions must be obtained under strict runtime constraints, motivating hybrid approach

AI agents increasingly carry out long-horizon professional work, but their evaluations rarely require a finished creative deliverable. To this end, we introduce Timeline-Bench, a benchmark of 56 real video-editing tasks, each asking an agent to turn raw production material into a

Memory is critical for AI agents. Many existing agent-memory systems follow an Ahead-of-Time (AOT) design, constructing memory before a specific request arrives. While this reduces online serving cost, such request-agnostic memory construction can discard fine-grained information

Artificial-intelligence (AI) agents hold promise for automating bioimage analysis, yet no benchmark evaluates whether they can carry out real-world analyses end to end. Such analyses are hard for agents because 2D images, 3D volumes and time-lapse sequences are often too large to
