arXiv:2607. 11523v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: When should an intelligent assistant speak up without being asked?
arXiv:2607. 17701v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Proactive agents are expected to anticipate user needs and provide autonomous assistance by perceiving environmental context without explicit instructions.

When should an intelligent assistant speak up without being asked? Continuous egocentric video offers rich, evolving context that enables a new form of assistance: one that is proactive rather than merely reactive.
arXiv:2606. 14571v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: A central role of personal-agent memory is to turn stored information and prior interactions into future-oriented assistance.
Conversational agents are increasingly embedded in human collaborative work, yet they remain fundamentally passive and reactive: they respond to explicit user requests rather than proactively recognizing moments when a team would benefit from timely intervention as human collaborators often do. This reactive design substantially limits the use of agents as active participants in multi-user collaboration, where disagreements, ambiguous goals, forgotten constraints, underspecified plans, discussion loops, and imbalanced participation can gradually undermine group progress.

arXiv:2608. 15755v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: User-centric multi-turn agents must act on an evolving task situation shaped by changing user intents, accumulated tool-grounded facts, missing information, and execution constraints.
arXiv:2607. 07721v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) and agentic frameworks have advanced enterprise AI considerably, yet agents remain fundamentally reactive: they wait for a human query before acting.
arXiv:2606. 05342v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: AI agents are increasingly asked to carry out work that spans minutes, hours, or longer.
arXiv:2608. 05729v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: As capabilities rapidly increase, AI agents can move from running inside one app to acting across a user's devices over time.
arXiv:2606. 10156v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: As recommender systems transition toward agentic, multi-turn conversational interfaces, evaluation paradigms have struggled to keep pace.
arXiv:2607. 16610v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Long-horizon AI agents are becoming increasingly capable, yet their interaction with users remains surprisingly thin.
