MIMESIS is a user simulator designed to train interactive language agents by mimicking real user behavior. It is trained on human conversations with explicit reasoning supervision and incorporates 13 realistic behavioral patterns. Experiments show that agents trained with MIMESIS outperform those trained with GPT-5.5 across multiple unseen simulators, and the proposed Coached On-Policy Self-Distillation further improves agent performance by providing dense, token-level supervision.
The paper presents a method for fine‑tuning a large language model (LLM) recommender to generate personalized, non‑harmful explanations for its recommendations. By training two LLM‑judge reward models and using constrained GRPO, the authors achieve a significant increase in the PASS rate for all three criteria, from 0.649 to 0.956 on their own judges and from 0.677 to 0.931 on an independent judge. The fine‑tuned model maintains its original recommendation performance, demonstrating that LLM‑based recommenders can be adapted to complex tasks without loss of effectiveness.
PersonaMem-v3 is a benchmark and evaluation harness designed to assess omni-platform personal intelligence for AI agents. It is built from over one million anonymized real-world engagement histories, covering social media, chatbots, calendars, and AI companions, and tracks user preferences and habits over time. The benchmark tests agents on personalization, LLM-powered recommendation, proactiveness, agentic tool use, and geo-temporal reasoning, evaluating their ability to infer holistic user understanding, personalize responses, rerank recommendations, follow user steering, and avoid inappropriate personalization.
The paper proposes shifting AI agent training from isolated task completion to collaborative interaction, defining three key dimensions—Productivity, Proactivity, and Personalization (PPP). It introduces UserVille, an environment with LLM-based user simulators and user-centric feedback, and a multi-objective reinforcement learning framework that optimizes PPP using rewards from task outcomes, question effort, and preference adherence. Experiments on SWE-Bench and BrowseComp-Plus show PPP-trained agents outperform strong LLM baselines, ask more targeted questions, and generalize to unseen preferences and tasks, with a user study underscoring the value of user-centric feedback for effective, supervised collaboration.
arXiv:2602. 11351v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Proactive large language model (LLM) agents aim to actively plan, query, and interact over multiple turns, enabling efficient task completion beyond passive instruction following and making them essential for real-world, user-centric applications.

arXiv:2608. 16168v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large language model (LLM) agents increasingly use external memory systems to support personalization by drawing on long and evolving interaction histories, in which user preferences may be distributed across time, change with context, and conflict with earlier evidence.
