2025/09/22

Large language models are increasingly used to turn complex study output into plain-English summaries. But how do we know which models are safest and most reliable for healthcare? In this most recent community AI research paper reading, Arjun Mukerji, PhD – Staff Data Scientist at Atropos Health – walks us through RWESummary, a new benchmark designed to evaluate LLMs on summarizing real-world evidence from structured study output — an important but often under-tested scenario compared t...

Small Language Models are the Future of Agentic AI

Deep Papers ·

2025/09/05

We had the privilege of hosting Peter Belcak – an AI Researcher working on the reliability and efficiency of agentic systems at NVIDIA – who walked us through his new paper making the rounds in AI circles titled “Small Language Models are the Future of Agentic AI.” The paper posits that small language models (SLMs) are sufficiently powerful, inherently more suitable, and necessarily more economical for many invocations in agentic systems, and are therefore the future of agentic AI. The autho...

Watermarking for LLMs and Image Models

Deep Papers ·

2025/07/30

In this AI research paper reading, we dive into "A Watermark for Large Language Models" with the paper's author John Kirchenbauer. This paper is a timely exploration of techniques for embedding invisible but detectable signals in AI-generated text. These watermarking strategies aim to help mitigate misuse of large language models by making machine-generated content distinguishable from human writing, without sacrificing text quality or requiring access to the model’s internals.

2025/06/04

We discuss Accurate KV Cache Quantization with Outlier Tokens Tracing, a deep dive into improving the efficiency of LLM inference. The authors enhance KV Cache quantization, a technique for reducing memory and compute costs during inference, by introducing a method to identify and exclude outlier tokens that hurt quantization accuracy, striking a better balance between efficiency and performance.

Scalable Chain of Thoughts via Elastic Reasoning

Deep Papers ·

2025/05/16

In this week's episode, we talk about Elastic Reasoning, a novel framework designed to enhance the efficiency and scalability of large reasoning models by explicitly separating the reasoning process into two distinct phases: thinking and solution. This separation allows for independent allocation of computational budgets, addressing challenges related to uncontrolled output lengths in real-world deployments with strict resource constraints. Our discussion explores how Elastic Reasoning ...

2025/05/02

What if your LLM could think ahead—preparing answers before questions are even asked? In this week's paper read, we dive into a groundbreaking new paper from researchers at Letta, introducing sleep-time compute: a novel technique that lets models do their heavy lifting offline, well before the user query arrives. By predicting likely questions and precomputing key reasoning steps, sleep-time compute dramatically reduces test-time latency and cost—without sacrificing performance. We explore n...

2025/04/18

For this week's paper read, we actually dive into our own research. We wanted to create a replicable, evolving dataset that can keep pace with model training so that you always know you're testing with data your model has never seen before. We also saw the prohibitively high cost of running LLM evals at scale, and have used our data to fine-tune a series of SLMs that perform just as well as their base LLM counterparts, but at 1/10 the cost. So, over the past few weeks, the Arize team ...

2025/01/14

LLMs have typically been restricted to reason in the "language space," where chain-of-thought (CoT) is used to solve complex reasoning problems. But a new paper argues that language space may not always be the best for reasoning. In this paper read, we cover an exciting new technique from a team at Meta called Chain of Continuous Thought—also known as "Coconut."

This week, we break down the “Agent-as-a-Judge” framework—a new agent evaluation paradigm that’s kind of like getting robots to grade each other’s homework. Where typical evaluation methods focus solely on outcomes or demand extensive manual work, this approach uses agent systems to evaluate agent systems, offering intermediate feedback throughout the task-solving process. With the power to unlock scalable self-improvement, Agent-as-a-Judge could redefine how we measure and enhance agent perf...
