Memory Beyond Recall: A Dual-Process Cognitive Memory System for Self-Evolving LLM Agents

Researchers propose DCPM, a dual-process cognitive memory system for LLM agents that organizes memory hierarchically from raw inputs to cross-domain patterns. The system uses a synchronous writer to record belief revisions and an asynchronous engine to induce schemas and detect cross-domain patterns, achieving significant improvements on personalization benchmarks requiring implicit reasoning about user evolution.

Thinking Fast, Thinking Wrong: Intuitiveness Modulates LLM Counterfactual Reasoning in Policy Evaluation

A new study reveals that large language models fail at counterfactual reasoning when policy findings contradict intuitive expectations, despite performing well on obvious cases. The research demonstrates that chain-of-thought prompting paradoxically worsens performance on counter-intuitive scenarios, suggesting current LLMs engage in 'slow talking' rather than genuine deliberative reasoning.
