Recent advancements in Large Language Models (LLMs) have empowered home assistants with natural language interaction capabilities. However, current assistants overlook the progressive omission that occurs in human dialogue as shared context accumulates, leading to more elliptical expressions for efficient communication.

The paper introduces GMA, a new benchmark for evaluating general mobile assistants in realistic, challenging scenarios. GMA expands on existing benchmarks by offering seven open‑source applications across diverse domains and 300 tasks organized into four difficulty tiers, ranging from simple actions to complex multi‑step workflows. The authors evaluate eight state‑of‑the‑art models, showing that performance drops sharply with task complexity, and conduct ablation studies on harness design—such as context retention and state tracking—to demonstrate how these choices can improve outcomes, especially for demanding workflows.

The study investigates how pruning affects large language models (LLMs) used for smart‑home tool calling. Researchers examined four LLMs—dense Transformer, dense hybrid, and mixture‑of‑experts (MoE) architectures—using depth, width, hybrid, and expert pruning, followed by supervised fine‑tuning. They evaluated over 19,500 instances from three smart‑home datasets, analyzing not only overall accuracy but also degradation in action components (operation, device, argument, value) and task complexity, finding that dense models suffer sharp performance drops after a narrow safe pruning range, while MoE models tolerate more pruning; aggressive pruning also leads to over‑refusal and loss of grounded specificity.
