arXiv:2607. 00009v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Despite the remarkable proficiency of large language models (LLMs) in basic writing assistance, their utility in creative writing is fundamentally hindered by a persistent binary failure.

arXiv:2607. 22657v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) can reproduce disinformation-aligned narrative frames as plausible explanations, raising the question of whether existing machine-unlearning algorithms can suppress this behavior.

CHARM is a multicultural benchmark that tests large language models’ ability to adopt a character’s style while respecting knowledge boundaries. It includes 40 real and fictional characters from five cultural-linguistic regions and evaluates two boundary types—Temporal and Cross-Universe—using abstention-enabled multiple-choice questions. The study finds that hallucinations mainly stem from compliance failures: models often recognize a query is out of scope yet still provide out-of-character answers, revealing systematic cultural variations in these errors.

arXiv:2606. 06481v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: As AI writing assistants become increasingly integrated into real-world drafting and revision workflows, many documents are no longer purely human-written or AI-generated, but instead result from progressive human-AI co-editing.

SAGE is a framework that automates storyboard creation by learning and evolving directing rules from expert demonstrations. It attributes each narrative group’s decisions to specific rules, refines those rules with localized feedback, and routes only relevant rules to each group during generation. In tests, SAGE matched professional directors on a rubric and reduced authoring time by over 83%.

arXiv:2606. 17391v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Long-form serialized audio drama, with arcs that run for 200 to 800 episodes, is a major creative medium and a setting where frontier large language models (LLMs) fail.
