arXiv:2608. 05710v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: When an AI system is deployed, the individuals who use and or are evaluated by it form beliefs about how the system operates and use those beliefs to strategically present their preferences, behaviors, or attributes.

LLM companions are deployed at scale in personally consequential settings, yet poorly evaluated. Existing benchmarks use hand-authored scenarios and prompted simulators, aggregate empathy into one score, and overlook judge biases such as same-family favoritism and scale drift.
arXiv:2608. 12358v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Product and engineering teams building role-bearing AI agents face an evaluation gap: an agent can produce accurate, safe, and fluent content while still failing the behavioral requirements of its assigned role.
