AI Agent News: Tools, Workflows & Evaluation — Page 3

From coding assistants to collaborative systems: what agents can do, and where they fall short.

Read this field in context

An agent chooses actions and tools in pursuit of a goal; a workflow follows a more predefined path. Reliable deployment needs clear permissions, observable results and a way to stop or escalate when a step fails.

When is a large language model a good calibration agent? Physics-labeled prompting for budgeted engineering simulator calibration

arXiv:2610.22379v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Calibrating expensive engineering simulators requires tuning model parameters to match reference data, a process heavily constrained by computational costs. This study investigates whether Large Language Models (LLMs), conditioned on physical diagnostic descriptions of simulation errors, can propose informative parameter updates more efficiently than conventional derivative-free optimizers.

The Alignment Problem: Computer Science Meets Analytic Philosophy

TLDR: I explain what the technical AI alignment problem is and what its core difficulties are, in my view. This is a perspective that draws simultaneously on classical traditions in theoretical computer science / machine learning theory, ideas from analytic philosophy, and views that originated in the Machine Intelligence Research Institute / LessWrong.

Deconfusing Corrigibility

Many thanks to Abram Demski for materially and intellectually supporting this research. Thanks also to Brian Berns, Roman Malov, Gurkenglas, and Lorxus for valuable conversations. Introduction Despite the central place of corrigibility to theoretical AI alignment, it seems like no one can really agree about what is .
