arXiv:2609.15369v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Word-level detectors identify unedited AI-generated text almost perfectly, but the literature documents their brittleness under rewording, and a word-l...
The paper presents an agentic framework for detecting conspiratorial content in social media by inferring the speaker’s intent rather than merely identifying explicit claims. It leverages social context and adaptive tool use, demonstrating superior performance over text-only and non-agentic models on a large Hebrew tweet dataset spanning election cycles and the COVID pandemic. The study highlights the importance of context-aware, reasoning-driven approaches for accurate conspiracy detection.
arXiv:2608. 14651v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Effective disaster risk communication is a foundational humanitarian challenge, yet current emergency infrastructure fails to meet the needs of individuals with access and functional needs, including hard-of-hearing individuals, pregnant women, mothers with toddlers, and elderly individuals with dementia.
arXiv:2607. 22745v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Rapid advances in image generation are eroding the evidentiary value of visual content in settings where authenticity can affect public safety and personal reputation.
The paper introduces an open, modular AI framework that automatically detects and structures evidence of social tipping points in climate literature at the passage level. It integrates a DistilBERT boundary splitter, an iteratively augmented RoBERTa classifier, a Mistral 7B rewrite model, a LLaMA 3.2 3B rating model, and a Milvus vector store, all accessible via a Streamlit interface. Evaluation on a GPT‑4.1‑labelled benchmark and expert‑reviewed set shows the splitter outperforms competitors and the RoBERTa detector achieves high accuracy and agreement.
arXiv:2606. 07613v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Visual evidence has long been treated as a reliable form of legal proof, but advances in artificial intelligence (AI) are undermining that assumption.
