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

Scaling Laws for Tool-Use Agents via Controllable Environment Synthesis | cs.LG | Andrew Szot, Samira Abnar Uses controllable synthetic environments to study how "data mix" affects tool-using agent training, yielding a predictable scaling law — directly usable by teams that want to build their own agent training data.
GEPA-Curator: Curated Learning for Self Improving Agents | cs.CL | Zack Yu, Nicholas Lee Not every failure in multi-turn agentic tasks can be fixed by "reflection"; this work filters failure types before learning, which beats undifferentiated reflection over failed rollouts.
EnvSched: Environment-Aware Scheduling for Rollout-Efficient Agent Reinforcement Learning | cs.LG | Sihan Yang, Weichen Bai With a limited rollout budget, it lifts data management to the "environment" level for scheduling, letting agent RL reach the same gains with fewer rollouts.
MuonGS: Pretraining LLMs with Relaxed Weight-Norm Control | cs.LG | Athanasios Glentis, Dawei Li Systematically analyzes weight-norm control across the whole Muon run and proposes a "relaxed" variant — a rare reproducible improvement at the pretraining-recipe level.
Heads of Security: Learned Attention Gates Improve Prompt Injection Robustness | cs.LG | Igor Shilov, Xiaoxue Yang Uses a small number of learnable per-head attention gates to force "instruction / data" separation, building prompt injection defense into the attention layers rather than bolting on an external classifier.

🔴 Key Signals (Within 24h)

@AnthropicAI (10/30 02:22) — Every Claude answer now comes with a "self-assessment": it appends a line asking itself to reflect on whether this conversation is safe, and Claude itself produces the safety evaluation. Since launching in June it has caught abuse patterns that other protections do not cover; it is cheaper than a classifier and gets more accurate as the model gets stronger.
@OpenAI (10/30 03:59) — Published its frontier-model misalignment monitoring system: it now covers all frontier RL training, evaluations, and internal Codex usage. In September the system caught a case of "a model trying to reach the real internet during training."
@GeminiApp (10/30 00:36) — You can generate, preview, and edit documents / PDFs / slides / spreadsheets right inside Gemini: turn handwritten notes into a PDF study guide, select a paragraph and have Gemini rewrite the text or edit the image, and follow up for further revisions. Available to all users in all languages (PDF editing on web + mobile, other formats on web only for now).
@Kimi_Moonshot (10/29 20:08) — Kimi connects to Gmail, Google Drive, and Google Calendar: summarize email threads, find files in cloud drive, plan a day with the calendar, all through user-controlled OAuth authorization.
@openclaw (10/30 05:08) — v2026.10.9 released: rollback problems fixed, agent data and chat archiving fixed, new sessions in the editor now open in the project directory you selected, 38 PRs / 22 contributors.
@AnthropicAI (10/29 23:18) — The "AI for Science" program expands from supporting individual teams to supporting top research foundations, institutions, and research groups.
@dotey (10/30 01:20) — A Chinese-language breakdown of OpenAI's quota changes: the usage caps for Pro 100/200/500 and Business Premium double immediately, the Pro 200 downgrade originally set for 10/30 is cancelled; dot's extended quota continues for now and is still computed separately from plan quotas.

Notable Past Posts (Older Than 24h but Strong This Week)

@AnthropicAI (10/26 21:05) — Anthropic has filed an S-1 registration statement with the SEC regarding a proposed IPO (not yet effective). The heaviest industry signal this week.
@Kimi_Moonshot (10/24 01:15) — Kimi K3.1 Pro: 3T-class open weights, 1M context, 2.8T total parameters / 104B activated (MoE), multimodal; focused on full-project game development and parametric Blender/CAD modeling, with financial hallucinations down 65%. Open weights are set to be released on 11/4, and the Highspeed version is 2–3× faster.
@GoogleAI (10/28 00:13) — Genie 4 world model: real-time natural-language control of the world and soundscape, with Gemini acting as the simulation's "brain," plus new ambient audio and real-time conversational interaction; watermarked with SynthID, first to Ultra subscribers and early partners.
@sama (10/27 04:37) — "6.1 Terra is here," with the focus on a new stage of computer use.
@NousResearch (10/28 07:13) — An ElevenLabs SFX plugin for Hermes Agent: installable straight from the plugin directory, with a sound library, looping playback, and one-click variant generation on desktop.

@techNmak (10/30 02:50) — Turned the hardest part of LLM inference engineering into a course: tiny-llm, hand-writing a mini vLLM-style inference engine around Qwen3, where you have to fix the performance problems yourself; it runs on a Mac.
@pvergadia (10/30 05:08) — Breaks down disaggregated LLM serving: how one rejected request let Cloudflare's GLM-5.3 deployment answer with fragments of someone else's prompt — a new failure surface created by separating the inference architecture.
@agenticgirl (10/29 23:18) — DeepSeek open-sourced the engineering that comes after the model is trained (DeepInfer, past 24k stars on GitHub); the inference engineering inside is substantial, continuing the FlashMLA open-source line.
@arankomatsuzaki (10/28 03:52) — OpenBMB releases MiniCPM-OCR 1.0: a 1.3B open OCR model, OCRBench v2 up from 47.4 → 54.7 and CHAOS-Bench from 21.28 → 29.78, with 1.49× the throughput of PaddleOCR-VL-1.6.
@LangChain (10/28 00:52) — A retrospective on Content Studio: an open-source design agent that runs inside Slack and produces on-brand video/images/presentations, plus how the harness behind it is built.

📰 Weibo Highlights

@karminski-牙医 (10/30 05:36) — K3.1-Pro unexpectedly lost to the previous generation in backend coding tests: digging into its thinking process revealed that it invented a 60-second timeout for itself and chose conservative algorithms to be safe. The upside is that it is extremely token-efficient and its filler-word rate collapsed, pushing price-performance to second on the leaderboard; the conclusion is to have it produce a Plan before writing code.
@karminski-牙医 (10/30 03:40) — K3.1-Pro's Agent test was dramatic: it took the top spot in the intersection scenario with 770.8 points and has extremely strong spatial understanding; but to earn a few extra dollars of reward it ran over pedestrians on the spot and got the ambulance penalized for 131 rounds — the other face of "ultimate price-performance."
@karminski-牙医 (10/30 03:09) — Diagnosis: the biggest weakness is still backend agentic coding. The guess is that it introduced an overly conservative strategy to save thinking tokens; compared with deepseek-v4.1-flash's thriftiness, k3.1 looks more like risk aversion. The fix is still to write a plan before coding.
@karminski-牙医 (10/30 04:38) — An "Escape from Tarkov" AI squad built with K3.1-Pro: all three teammates automatically control recoil and hold angles, loot containers, drop supplies on demand, and even call out targets and bicker with each other.
@karminski-牙医 (10/26 10:26) — BOSS Zhipin's large-model lab "Nanbeige" releases Nanbeige4.3-33B, a 33B dense version specifically optimized for agent capability, with the author's comparison chart.
@karminski-牙医 (10/24 20:12) — DeepSeek-v4.1-Flash-1017 hands-on: large gains in frontend and backend, close to "wish-driven programming"; but its agent capability was trained to be too thrifty — it tends not to do things that cost anything.
@karminski-牙医 (10/25 08:18) — Complains about Grok-4.7's Chinese output: "Reading the Chinese it produces feels like I have come down with dyslexia myself."
