arXiv:2608. 16347v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Direct communication between AI systems relies on natural language as an intermediate layer, incurring encoding/decoding overhead, token cost, and latency.

Large Language Models fail at implicit multi-hop reasoning: a model answers "When was $X$ born? " and "Who is $Y$'s closest friend?
arXiv:2502. 15543v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) integrated with retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) have improved factuality by grounding outputs in external evidence.
