A new preprint describes AffectOmni, a reinforcement-learning framework designed to make multimodal AI models base affective judgments on people-centered cues such as facial expressions, body language and temporal order. The authors report improvements over open-source 7B-scale baselines on three benchmarks…
A new preprint introduces FaithSieve, a Lean-assisted framework that breaks AI-generated mathematical proofs into local reasoning units and reports higher first-error localization accuracy than direct model judging.
A new preprint reports that large language models displayed measurable signs of mentalization in two economic games, but their performance and strategies differed by model family and size. The authors say GPT-5 agents adapted to increasingly sophisticated opponents and outperformed the human comparison group in…
