AI Waypoint-guided on-policy distillation for RL-induced policy shifts
Peer review is under strain from the growth of submissions, and review comments written by humans or AI can misstate what a paper says. We introduce ReviewFact, a benchmark that labels such factual errors in review comments under one definition across NLP, machine learning, and…
GPT-6-Astra demonstrates a level of competence in robotic manipulation and navigation that challenges the conventional paradigm of building specialized models for individual tasks and embodiments. In this report, we ask not only how capable GPT-6-Astra is, but what its…
A guardrail classifier is reported as if unsafe were a property of text. It is not: it is a property of a policy, and the policy enters the model through its labels. We exploit an accident of an industrial deployment in which the same ~53k prompts were labelled twice, under two…
Feed-forward 3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) promises instant scene reconstruction with high-quality novel-view synthesis. Yet, fine-grained geometry and appearance remain difficult to recover, motivating us to revisit how feed-forward models represent, aggregate, and refine…
Speech anonymization has focused on the acoustic signal, leaving open how much speaker information the transcribed words themselves retain. In this work, we study pairwise speaker and demographic-attribute verification from transcribed speech. We introduce SPARC (Spoken Profile…
