How we choose

Pistis Technical Report

“Experiments demonstrate that PAH enhances the model performance without updating the model parameters or increasing the interaction budget.”

TrainingByteDance

Hunyuan-A13B Technical Report

“Evaluations show competitive performance across mathematics, science, programming, general language understanding, and agent tasks, often approaching that of much larger models.”

TrainingTencent

AgentWorld

“Experiments with Gemini 3 Flash, Claude Haiku 4.5, GPT-5 Mini, and DeepSeek R1-70B show that even the best model achieves only 52.0% task success, with systematic failure modes including communication breakdowns, role confusion, and inability to maintain shared plans across rounds.”

AgentsBenchmark

Your Model Is Leaking

“Across eleven models from seven architecture families, our evaluation shows 91--100% recovery on nine models with KL divergence 0.001--0.007, while evaluated activation-level detectors remain close to random guessing (AUC <= 0.56).”

Security

Qwen3.8-Omni

“Extensive evaluations demonstrate that Qwen3.8-Omni-Flash achieves strong performance across multimodal understanding, reasoning, long-horizon agentic execution, and video productivity tasks.”

Agents

Beyond Task Completion

“Starting from Qwen3.5-9B, SCOPE-RL achieves a 54.17% task success rate on OSWorld and a 64.30% attack-avoidance rate on OS-BLIND, yielding the best aggregate capability--safety score of 58.80% among the evaluated agents.”

Safety

Euston

“Median response length also falls from 19,217 to 18,296 tokens and the truncation rate from 25.8% to 8.3%, so the improvement does not come from thinking longer.”

Reasoning

Delegated Misalignment

“We show that this assumption breaks down: \emph{individual safety alignment fails to transfer to multi-agent settings}.”
