Semifactual Credit-Augmented Policy Optimization
Reinforcement learning with verifiable rewards improved reasoning capabilities of large language models yet predictions stayed sensitive to task-irrelevant prompt features. Researchers investigated this sensitivity through semifac...
Turbo Harness: Instance-Adaptive Harness Optimization
Automating the search for effective harnesses is an important step toward enabling agents to recursively self-improve. Existing harness optimizations typically produce a single global harness that is applied uniformly across task...
Google releases Gemini 4 Argon, called its most powerful model yet
Google has unveiled Gemini 4 Argon, a new AI model positioned as the company's most powerful release yet. The announcement comes as top AI labs compete to ship increasingly capable systems, each generation framed as a leap forward...
Show HN: Desbordante 2.5.0 Released
Desbordante project announces version 2.5.0, a significant release approximately one year after the previous stable build. The delay allowed contributors to accumulate a substantial set of additions across dependency mining, graph...
Join Us Live: Hacktoberfest 2026 Launch with Exclusive Swag! 🎃🚀
Google's Fairwind Program and the Argon launch Google's parent company Alphabet has launched Gemini 4 Argon, a new AI model positioned as the company's most powerful release to date. The system handles coding, research, and writin...
Ask HN: What Do to Outside Tech?
Ask HN: What to do outside tech A Hacker News user recently posed a question that many developers grapple with at some point in their careers: what does life look like beyond the keyboard? The poster described wanting to start a s...
HN: Humanbound|Open-source red teaming for AI agents, free hosted tier
Adversarial testing for AI agents with humanbound Humanbound is an open-source framework designed to stress-test AI agents by simulating the ways real users and attackers interact with them. Unlike tools that primarily test prompt...
Imagine3D-LLM: Teaching MLLMs to Imagine 3D Scenes Before Answering
Multimodal large language models have made rapid progress on single-image tasks, yet they still falter when asked to reason about a scene from multiple viewpoints. A model that sees three photos of a room from different angles oft...
Breakdown of Local Denoising as Semantic Speciation
The dynamics of generative models exhibit two apparently distinct temporal windows: a speciation window, in which a sample commits to a semantic class, and a nonlocality window, in which local context windows become insufficient f...
LeapQuant: Efficient Linear Attention with Accurate Recurrent State Quantization
Recent large language models increasingly adopt hybrid attention designs that replace the standard quadratic attention with linear alternatives. Models such as Gated DeltaNet (GDN) and Kimi Delta Attention (KDA) compress the entir...
