Will 150,000 extras be completely replaced by AI? ByteDance’s Volcano Engine responded late at night: the online claim that “data is being fed into large models” is seriously inaccurate!

Rumors are circulating that Hengdian Film & TV plans to partner with ByteDance to collect and store digital data, facial features, and acting performances of 150,000 extras, conducting in-depth analysis. The claim that “extras will no longer be needed in the future” has sparked heated debate over whether AI is taking away the livelihoods of grassroots actors, drawing close attention from the film and television industry. On October 28, Liu Xing, head of public relations for Doubao, responded by stating “Hengdian is collaborating with ByteDance,” though the full text of his subsequent remarks was not provided.

Foreign blogger uses AI earphones as a medical translation tool: “Just listen and translate—communication becomes much smoother.”

Foreign blogger “Carlo Wu (Carlo)” shared his experience of visiting a traditional Chinese medicine doctor on social media. He wore the Qwen AI clip-on earphones—one for himself and one for the doctor—and used face-to-face translation to facilitate communication. Carlo said he finds traditional medicine very interesting, but language has always been an obstacle. During the consultation, when the doctor asked where he was feeling discomfort, he could only gesture while saying, “Everything hurts.” After putting on the earphones, the two were able to communicate more effectively. He remarked that this was the first time he truly understood what the doctor was saying.

Benchmarking Task Takeover Across Agent Handoffs

arXiv:2610.36523v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: As agents collaborate on longer tasks, responsibility may pass between models before the work is complete. The receiving model must build on prior decisions, observations, and actions while addressing the remaining requirements. Evaluating this transition requires connecting the information preserved at handoff to how the receiver continues the work, a relationship that task-success and memory-retention scores alone do not capture. We introduce the Handoff State Continuity Benchmark (HSC-Bench), comprising 1,039 tasks that evaluate two complementary aspects of task takeover: recovering relevant repository evidence and continuing from established conversational, tool, and file-work state. Comparisons across six receiving models show that struc

3, 7, 14, 17, 42: Instruction Tuning Installs and Sharpens Number-Choice Heuristics in Language Models

arXiv:2610.36178v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We measure, without sampling error, the probability a language model assigns to each integer from 1 to N when asked for a random number. For a fixed prompt the model defines one probability vector, which we compute by summing over each integer's scored spellings rather than estimate by sampling, removing the noise that limits earlier studies [1, 4]. We evaluate 18 open-weight model lines at five ranges up to N = 100, under 29 decoding configurations, on two inference stacks; 15 of them have matched base and instruction-tuned checkpoints that both give usable answers. Instruction tuning makes the distribution less uniform in all 15 pairs. It installs one heuristic, round-number avoidance, and sharpens another, endpoint avoidance. Base checkpoi

Detect Before You Disambiguate: Perturbation-Based Input Ambiguity Detection in LLMs

arXiv:2610.36353v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) often answer ambiguous inputs as if they had a single intended meaning. This is problematic because input ambiguity is an upstream source of uncertainty: when a prompt admits multiple valid interpretations, the key question is whether the model should answer directly at all. Existing input uncertainty methods often rely on LLM-generated statements or clarifications, but such transformations may already disambiguate the input before the ambiguity is measured. We propose a label-preserving perturbation framework for input ambiguity detection in which perturbations remain close to the original input while preserving its label. We instantiate this principle with two detectors: a black-box rule-based perturbation libra

Lipi-Ghor: A Large-Scale, Diarized, Multi-Domain Bengali Speech Corpus and a Scalable Pipeline for Building It

arXiv:2610.36184v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Bengali, spoken by over 230 million people, remains severely under-resourced in spoken language research. Existing open Bengali ASR corpora are confined to short, read or crowd-sourced speech and lack speaker diarization and long-form audio. We present Lipi-Ghor, a large-scale weakly-supervised Bengali speech corpus comprising 885 hours of audio sourced from 998 YouTube videos across 596 unique channels, spanning 17 diverse domains including audiobooks, drama, religious sermons, news, and regional dialects. Each recording is annotated in SSTT format (Speaker, Speech, Transcription, Timestamp), which combines automated diarization with Bengali YouTube caption tracks. To our knowledge, Lipi-Ghor is the first Bengali speech corpus to pair large-

LLM Hallucination Detection via Low-rank Multilinear Decomposition

arXiv:2610.36191v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) frequently generate fluent yet factually incorrect responses, raising concerns about their reliability. Recent hallucination detectors increasingly exploit internal representations, but extracting informative signals from high-dimensional hidden states remains challenging. Existing approaches often rely on selected activations or pooling-based compression, potentially overlooking discriminative information distributed across Transformer layers, feature modes, and tokens. We propose LOTUS (Low-rank Order-statistic TUcker-based Subspace learning), a multilinear low-rank decomposition framework for hallucination detection that extracts compact representations from LLM hidden states while reducing dependence on labele

Causal Localization of Evidence Effects in Transformers

arXiv:2610.36524v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Can controlled symbolic inputs reveal attention heads that influence a language model's decisions from natural language evidence? We introduce controlled evidence aggregation (CEA), which varies the counts and order of two symbols in otherwise fixed prompts and measures changes in a frozen Transformer's preference between two answer tokens. The preference is measured by their logit difference; the prompts prescribe no correct answer. Balanced utility causal selection (BUC) identifies compact head sets by jointly evaluating how much ablating their outputs removes the count effect and how closely patching mean outputs between count conditions recovers the effect in both directions. We derive conditional bounds linking head attribution to interv

Do AI Scientists Know What's New?

arXiv:2610.36511v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: A major challenge facing AI scientific discovery pipelines is how to determine when a generated idea is meaningfully novel. Ideally, novelty checks in these pipelines must be able to reject non-novel ideas while not rejecting too many novel ideas, and they should also be able to distinguish which parts of a proposal are non-novel, as opposed to opaquely discarding entire proposals. We design an analytical framework for evaluation of novelty checks with temporal ground truth at both the proposal- and claim-level, using four datasets of 1,060 proposals built from published papers, reviewer disputes, and generated ideas matching ones the field went on to publish. Auditing existing novelty checks with this framework, we find that checks with high

KORA: Deterministic-First Execution Control for AI Workloads

arXiv:2610.35869v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: AI applications often invoke a model before they determine whether inference is necessary. That default is useful for ambiguous generative tasks, but it is poorly matched to work that is structured, deterministic, policy-bound, lookup-oriented, or directly verifiable. KORA introduces deterministic-first execution control: a pre-inference control layer that represents requests as task paths, attempts deterministic or structured routes first, validates route outcomes, records telemetry, and escalates to a model-candidate path only when deterministic handling is insufficient. This paper presents KORA as a deterministic-first execution-control architecture and reports bounded evidence from reproducible benchmark and validation workloads. In a rep
