📄 arXiv Papers — cs.AI / cs.LG / cs.CL

(The 5 papers most relevant to agents / reasoning / LLM training & inference, all submitted 2026-10-06)

Agent in a Bottle: Can LLM Agents Turn Their Capabilities Into Cheap, Scalable Artifacts? | cs.AI | Ankit Sonthalia, Haritz Puerto LLMs can solve narrow tasks, but querying them one instance at a time at million-scale is too expensive; the paper explores whether agents can autonomously "solidify" their capabilities into cheaper, reusable artifacts.
AdvSim2Real: Training Web Agents Against Adaptive Prompt Injection in a Web World Model | cs.CL | Sarim Hashmi, Mukul Ranjan A web agent can be derailed just by reading third-party content with injected instructions; the paper trains prompt-injection-resistant web agents against an adaptively attacking web world model.
Sherpa: Teaching LLMs to Teach Adaptively | cs.AI | Weixian Xu, Yanzhe Zhang Solving problems is not the same as teaching them: training an LLM to be a "teacher" that adapts to the learner's state.
IdeaAnchor: Teaching LLMs to Turn Literature into Research Ideas | cs.CL | Ziyu Chen, Yilun Zhao Training language models to synthesize several related papers, identify the gaps, and generate research directions.
VeriFine: Scaling Verification for Self-Improvement in Embodied Reasoning | cs.AI | Zewei Zhou, Rachel Luo Self-improving policies keep exposing new failure modes, and a fixed judge holds optimization back; the paper proposes a scalable verification mechanism to support self-improvement in embodied reasoning.
