arXiv:2606. 28413v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: A mesh of sovereign agents has no center: no shared clock, no shared model, and no coordinator to gather data or retrain.
arXiv:2608. 16409v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Today, a neural system is almost always used in two phases -- trained, then deployed -- and in that regime it freezes twice: training ends, and the topology itself was never a degree of freedom.

arXiv:2606. 12502v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We propose that value -- the quantity goal-directed agents create, destroy, and exchange -- is a lawful structural quantity in the same category as information.
arXiv:2608. 19888v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Streaming systems that maintain a pool of expert models must repeatedly decide whether to reuse an existing expert for arriving data, spawn a new one, or defer.
arXiv:2602. 03846v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We develop a continual learning method for pretrained models that \emph{requires no access to old-task data}, addressing a practical barrier in foundation model adaptation where pretraining distributions are often unavailable.
arXiv:2607. 18433v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Intelligence appears under different names in different fields: as data compression in statistics and machine learning, as universal computation in dynamical systems, and as adaptive behavior in agents.
arXiv:2607. 00006v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Beckmann & Butlin's (2026) ontological framework for the LLM individuation problem inherits an unargued cross-regime co-reference assumption from the persona-vectors literature: that the same direction picks out the same content under prompt-conditioning, gradient-descent fine-tuning, and inference-time steering.
arXiv:2606. 21253v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Continual learning that is gradient-free, local, online, and append-only is attractive for edge and streaming deployment, but its value is usually argued informally.
arXiv:2607. 05297v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Recent LLM agents tackle increasingly long-horizon, open-ended tasks, and external skills, reusable procedural knowledge supplied to the agent, further extend this capability.
arXiv:2607. 11958v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Under the free energy principle, a predictive system does not observe reality directly; it maintains a generative model of the world and experiences that model's best current hypothesis.
arXiv:2607. 20171v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Learned solvers for compressible flow are usually compared to classical methods at equal mesh resolution rather than at equal computational cost, and they typically offer no guarantee that their solutions remain physically admissible.
arXiv:2608. 16216v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: What is the right delay complexity when a learner can track only $C$ pending feedback items and discarded feedback is permanently lost?
