arXiv:2608. 07743v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Identifying a meaningful quantum speedup requires more than matching a classical problem to a familiar quantum primitive: the claim must preserve the task, respect access and output models, expose required promises, and remain within a defensible complexity scope.

arXiv:2508. 20134v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Programming quantum circuits at the OpenQASM level is essential for achieving hardware-aware optimization and reliable execution on noisy intermediate-scale quantum (NISQ) devices, yet it remains challenging due to the need for domain-specific planning, iterative code synthesis, and low-level calibration.

arXiv:2603. 13191v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: While large language models (LLMs) have transformed AI agents into proficient executors of computational materials science, performing a hundred simulations does not make a researcher.

arXiv:2607. 25834v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Quantum computers are moving from research laboratories to industrial machines accessible via the cloud and integrated into high-performance computing facilities.

arXiv:2606. 26158v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: When a benchmark's accuracy saturates, it is often retired and replaced with a more challenging version.

arXiv:2510. 19771v4 Announce Type: replace Abstract: LLM-based agents are increasingly moving towards proactivity: rather than awaiting instruction, they exercise agency to anticipate user needs and solve them autonomously.

arXiv:2602. 02905v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Autonomous agents powered by large language models (LLMs) promise to accelerate scientific discovery end-to-end, but rigorously evaluating their capacity for verifiable discovery remains a central challenge.

arXiv:2607. 20468v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: AI agents are increasingly used to automate research and development tasks, yet existing benchmarks typically evaluate them on prescribed workflows or narrow action spaces.

arXiv:2602. 17902v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) can plan scientific workflows and generate code, but these capabilities do not specify how scientific state is validated, transferred and recorded across heterogeneous computational and experimental operations.

arXiv:2607. 00436v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language model agents are increasingly connected to scientific software, yet it remains unclear when tool access makes scientific computation more reliable rather than merely more complex.
