How we choose

GigaSpeechBench

“Extensive evaluations of leading foundation models and commercial APIs reveal significant performance degradation in these challenging settings, exposing critical evaluation blind spots.”

SEC-bench Pro

“Our evaluation shows that coding agents with frontier models remain below 40% success on both evaluated engines.”

Blind PRNG Hijacking

“Across three watermarking schemes and three open-source LLMs, the attack triggers 0/6 state-of-the-art content-side statistical detectors while inflating the watermark z-score up to 2.42x (system-level defenses such as entropy-source attestation remain orthogonal and complementary).”

Plant, Persist, Trigger

“Experiments on seven strong open-source and closed-source LLMs show that state-of-the-art LLM agents remain vulnerable to Sleeper Attack, even when they achieve low attack success rates under a single-interaction baseline.”

Alignment Tampering

“Our experiments demonstrate amplification across diverse biases: from keyword bias to propaganda (e.g., sexism), brand promotion, and instrumental goal-seeking.”
