arXiv:2608. 15971v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Dual-encoder models such as CLIP score an image-caption pair by a single inner product of two independently computed unit vectors, and fail at binding, often scoring near chance when asked to distinguish "a red car and a blue dog" from "a blue car and a red dog".

arXiv:2608. 15475v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Quantized Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models expose a weight-fault surface: Rowhammer-style faults can corrupt deployed INT8 bits.

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:2605. 24042v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Of $1{,}536$ Gaussian release covariances we tested for single-layer hidden-state privacy, zero achieve both moderate utility and moderate privacy against an adaptive retrieval attacker.

arXiv:2608. 10869v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Worst-case multiclass bounds do not become smaller when the best classifier is already nearly correct: what is missing is an optimistic rate, a guarantee whose fluctuation scales with the oracle risk itself.

arXiv:2606. 11417v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Compression progress is a long-standing proposal for intrinsic motivation: reward an agent when its world model becomes better at predicting or compressing experience.
