SEATauBench: Adapting Tool-Agent-User Evaluation Into Low-Resource Southeast Asian Languages

arXiv:2606. 28715v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: While AI development and evaluation for Southeast Asia (SEA) has grown rapidly, agent capabilities in regional languages are still poorly understood despite its importance to sovereign AI.

WorldBench: Culturally Grounded Benchmark for Multilingual Agents

WorldBench is a new multilingual benchmark that tests large language model agents on culturally grounded everyday workflows, offering 1,600 tasks in seven languages and eight cultures. The benchmark evaluates agents through structured sandbox actions and introduces Constrained Task Success (CTS), a metric that assesses task completion, minimal modification, and other complementary aspects via deterministic and LLM-as-a-Judge evaluations. Experiments show that even leading models achieve only 49.2% CTS, revealing significant gaps in correctness and state preservation across languages and cultures.

{\tau}-bench-LILT: Evaluating Conversational Agents on Realistic Multilingual Tool-Use Tasks

The paper introduces ${ au}$-bench-LILT, a multilingual extension of the ${ au^3}$-bench benchmark that evaluates conversational agents on realistic tool‑use tasks in German, Korean, Turkish, and Farsi across airline, retail, telecom, and banking domains. It localizes every layer of the benchmark, including culturally appropriate customer databases, native‑language user‑simulator prompts refined by contrastive annotation, and tasks tailored to realistic regional scenarios. Evaluation of eight agent models reveals the most significant performance drops in the Korean and Farsi retail domains, with reductions of up to 61 points in pass^4.
