arXiv:2607. 20902v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Goal reasoning in Non-Axiomatic Logic (NAL) explains how an adaptive system derives means for realizing desired events under insufficient knowledge and resources.

arXiv:2606. 31748v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Safety training on language models often induces over-refusal: improved safety on harmful prompts at the cost of increased refusal on harmless ones.

arXiv:2608. 15673v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large language model guardrails can be viewed as policy-consistency problems: a system must determine which policy-relevant facts hold in a prompt-response pair and what those facts imply under a given policy.

arXiv:2510. 15395v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: An AI agent will learn a desired goal more effectively if it does not resist the training process, but many partially learned goals incentivize an AI to avoid further goal updates.

arXiv:2501. 06857v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Perhaps the most popular modern formulation of actual causality is the HP account by Halpern and Pearl.

arXiv:2606. 25013v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Today's reasoning models use thinking tokens to attain stronger performance on benchmarks than their instruction-tuned counterparts.

arXiv:2608. 08192v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Standard approaches to abductive reasoning can retain multiple candidate explanations, but they do not generally combine explicit compositional cross-hypothesis interaction with an internal, rival-sensitive commitment judgment.

arXiv:2606. 23938v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Driving VLA models incorporating Chain-of-Thought (CoT) reasoning are attractive because they leverage pretrained VLM representations and expose intermediate decisions in natural language, yet current rationales often lack the step-by-step decision semantics needed to keep the rationale causally connected to the planned motion.

arXiv:2602. 15259v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Generative AI agents equate understanding with resolving explicit queries, an assumption that confines interaction to what users can articulate.

arXiv:2607. 14641v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Abductive reasoning operates in two directions.

arXiv:2607. 14552v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: A standard recipe for distilling the reasoning ability of large language models (LLMs) is to sample chains of thought from the model, keep those that reach the correct final answer, and fine-tune on the survivors.

arXiv:2608. 03745v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Chain-of-Thought (CoT) reasoning offers a promising window into model monitoring.
