NVIDIA has released the large-scale speech transcription model Nemotron 3.5 Transcribe, which can accurately recognize speech even when eight people speak simultaneously.

NVIDIA has officially open-sourced its new large-scale speech transcription model, Nemotron 3.5 Transcribe. Designed for professional voice processing, this model leads the industry in key metrics such as multilingual transcription accuracy, long-audio handling, and multi-speaker separation. It employs a Mixture of Experts (MoE) architecture with approximately 34 billion total parameters, activating only a subset of these parameters during each forward pass to enhance efficiency. Overall, it provides a new open-source option for professional speech transcription.

FilingLoop: Evaluating and Evolving LLM Agents for Corporate Disclosure Review and Revision

arXiv:2610.37905v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Public disclosure repositories such as SEC EDGAR support informed investment through web access to corporate filings. Supporting their review with language model agents requires discovering unstated deficiencies across related documents, acquiring missing company facts, and verifying that requested revisions satisfy evidence-backed requirements. Existing financial question-answering evaluations provide limited evidence of these interactive capabilities. We introduce \textbf{FilingLoop}, an interactive benchmark and a self-evolving agent framework for corporate disclosure review and revision. Grounded in historical U.S.\ Securities and Exchange Commission correspondence, FilingLoop reconstructs 380 predominantly IPO review tasks from 96 compan

Exposure Is Not Commitment: Double-Stratified Evaluation of Latent Monitors for Tool-Using Agents

arXiv:2610.37679v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Tool-using language agents are vulnerable to indirect prompt injection, and a growing literature probes model internals to catch unsafe actions before they execute, with sharply conflicting results. We argue much of the conflict is an evaluation artifact, and propose a double-stratification protocol: separate injection exposure from behavioral commitment, in both the evaluation and the training population. On the primary Qwen AgentDojo grid, monitors trained on the naive mixed unsafe-versus-rest contrast mostly learn exposure: they flag exposed trajectories whether or not the agent complies, and barely predict which cases turn unsafe. Retrained on exposed cases only, the same probe families predict the model's own unsafe tool call up to two s

Evaluating and improving AI agents for sequencing protocol understanding

arXiv:2610.37851v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Existing scientific-agent benchmarks rarely evaluate whether agents can reconstruct the exact molecular structures and generation workflows specified by sequencing protocols, a capability critical for analyzing customized sequencing assays. We introduce LibStructBench, a document-grounded benchmark for reconstructing sequencing-library structures and molecular workflows. Our experiments show that frontier agents often produce approximately correct reconstructions but remain unreliable at exact reconstruction, particularly in molecular-state representation and workflow connectivity. Switching the underlying language model produced larger average performance differences than switching agent harnesses, with a statistically significant difference

FlatCake: A Flat KVCache Storage Architecture for LLM Serving

arXiv:2610.38355v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: KV cache reuse accelerates LLM serving, but existing systems manage host DRAM and NVMe SSD as a tiered hierarchy where DRAM acts as an intermediate cache. Production LLM workloads break both premises of this hierarchy. First, bimodal reuse defeats DRAM temporal filtering, since workloads are dominated either by one-shot blocks with long reuse distances or by multi-gigabyte agentic sessions that exceed DRAM capacity, putting SSD on the critical read path. Second, DRAM staging and eviction-ordered layout bottleneck SSD restoration. Holding host staging buffers for in-flight prefixes causes contention under load that aborts prefetches, while incremental eviction scatters a session's blocks across the SSD and prevents large sequential reads.

Scoring Explanations Without Reading Them: Structural Shortcuts in Automated-Interpretability Evaluation Data

arXiv:2610.37676v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Automated interpretability scores an explanation of a sparse-autoencoder (SAE) feature by asking a model to predict, token by token, where the feature fires on evaluation examples or to judge whether marked tokens fit it. We find that the evaluation data standard pipelines build can be scored without reading the explanation. On Neuronpedia's stored fuzzing runs for 500 random GPT-2 small features, 91.3% of activating examples are cropped with the peak on the centre token, and a rule that says "yes" when the centre token is marked reaches balanced accuracy 0.979, against 0.838 for the stored LLM scorers (recomputed from the stored per-item verdicts, on marks rebuilt from the pipeline's code); a rule reading only the mark count reaches 0.969.

Seq@K: Evaluating Language Models Under Sequential Feedback

arXiv:2610.37859v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Language-model agents differ fundamentally from prior intelligent systems in their ability to learn from natural language in context. This capability enables agents to iteratively refine their answers in response to feedback, a prevalent mode of operation in modern agentic workflows. However, the community primarily ranks models by metrics such as Pass@1 or Pass@K, which cannot capture how they utilize feedback on prior attempts. We introduce Seq@K, a natural evaluation protocol that measures whether a model can solve a problem within K sequential attempts, provided feedback after each previous failure. Unlike multi-turn agentic benchmarks that examine long-horizon planning, Seq@K isolates and formalizes the core capability of refinement from

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.
