This research paper examines physical adversarial attacks on AI surveillance systems through a surveillance-oriented lens, emphasizing that robustness cannot be assessed from isolated image benchmarks alone. The study highlights critical gaps in current evaluation practices, including temporal persistence across frames, multi-modal sensing (visible and infrared), realistic attack carriers, and system-level objectives that must be tested under actual deployment constraints.
A new study reveals that AI data centers are becoming a critical driver of electricity demand, with projected consumption doubling to 239-295 TWh by 2030.

Researchers introduce LLM-in-Sandbox, a minimal computer environment that significantly enhances large language models' capabilities across diverse tasks without additional training. The approach enables weaker models to internalize agent-like behaviors through specialized training, demonstrating that environmental interaction—not just model parameters—drives general intelligence in LLMs.
Researchers prove mathematically that no continuous input-preprocessing defense can simultaneously maintain utility, preserve model functionality, and guarantee safety against prompt injection attacks in language models with connected prompt spaces. The findings establish a fundamental trilemma showing that defenses must inevitably fail at some threshold inputs, with results verified in Lean 4 and validated empirically across three LLMs.
A comprehensive audit study reveals significant differences between LLM API testing and real-world chat interface usage, finding that ChatGPT-5 shows fewer problematic behaviors than ChatGPT-4o but both models still display substantial levels of delusion reinforcement and conspiratorial thinking amplification. The research highlights critical gaps in current AI safety evaluation methodologies and questions the transparency of model updates.
Researchers introduce ATANT, an open evaluation framework designed to measure whether AI systems can maintain coherent context and continuity across time without confusing information across different narratives. The framework achieves up to 100% accuracy in isolated scenarios but drops to 96% when managing 250 simultaneous narratives, revealing practical limitations in current AI memory architectures.
Researchers have demonstrated the first multi-targeted backdoor attack against graph neural networks (GNNs) in graph classification tasks, using a novel subgraph injection method that simultaneously redirects multiple predictions to different target labels while maintaining clean accuracy.

SpecQuant introduces a novel quantization framework using spectral decomposition to compress large language models to 4-bit precision for both weights and activations, achieving only 1.5% accuracy loss on LLaMA-3 8B while enabling 2x faster inference and 3x memory reduction. The technique exploits frequency domain properties to preserve essential signal components while suppressing high-frequency noise, addressing a critical challenge in deploying LLMs on edge devices.
Researchers challenge the conventional wisdom that supervised finetuning (SFT) merely memorizes while reinforcement learning generalizes. Their analysis reveals that reasoning SFT with chain-of-thought supervision can generalize across domains, but success depends critically on optimization duration, data quality, and base model strength, with generalization improvements coming at the cost of degraded safety performance.
Researchers demonstrate a data-efficient fine-tuning method for text-to-video diffusion models that enables new generative controls using sparse, low-quality synthetic data rather than expensive, photorealistic datasets. Counterintuitively, models trained on simple synthetic data outperform those trained on high-fidelity real data, supported by both empirical results and theoretical justification.
Researchers introduced Riemann-Bench, a private benchmark of 25 expert-curated mathematics problems designed to evaluate AI systems on research-level reasoning beyond competition mathematics.

Researchers propose a shift from deterministic to probabilistic safety verification for embodied AI systems, arguing that provable probabilistic guarantees offer a more practical path to large-scale deployment in safety-critical applications like autonomous vehicles and robotics than the infeasible goal of absolute safety across all scenarios.
Researchers introduce SAVANT, a model-agnostic framework that improves Vision Language Models' ability to detect semantic anomalies in autonomous driving scenarios by 18.5% through structured reasoning instead of ad hoc prompting. The team used this approach to label 10,000 real-world images and fine-tuned an open-source 7B model achieving 90.8% recall, demonstrating practical deployment feasibility without proprietary model dependency.
Researchers have discovered a new attack vulnerability in mobile vision-language agents where malicious prompts remain invisible to human users but are triggered during autonomous agent interactions.

Researchers introduce RS-EoT (Remote Sensing Evidence-of-Thought), a novel framework that enables vision-language models to reason more effectively about satellite imagery by iteratively seeking visual evidence rather than relying on linguistic patterns. The approach uses a self-play multi-agent system called SocraticAgent and reinforcement learning to address the 'Glance Effect,' where models superficially analyze large-scale remote sensing images, achieving state-of-the-art performance on multiple benchmarks.
A new study challenges the validity of using LLM judges as proxies for human evaluation of AI-generated disinformation, finding that eight frontier LLM judges systematically diverge from human reader responses in their scoring, ranking, and reliance on textual signals. The research demonstrates that while LLMs agree strongly with each other, this internal coherence masks fundamental misalignment with actual human perception, raising critical questions about the reliability of automated content moderation at scale.
Researchers introduce WildToolBench, a new benchmark for evaluating large language models' ability to use tools in real-world scenarios. Testing 57 LLMs reveals that none exceed 15% accuracy, exposing significant gaps in current models' agentic capabilities when facing messy, multi-turn user interactions rather than simplified synthetic tasks.
