Memory has emerged as a cornerstone of modern LLM-based agents, supporting their evolution from single-turn assistants to long-term collaborators. However, memory is not always beneficial: retrieved memories often induce a critical issue of sycophancy, causing agents to over-align with the user at the cost of factual accuracy or objective reasoning.

The paper introduces FAME, a training‑free framework that evaluates false memory in autonomous agents by tracking how their internal beliefs shift under counterfactual scenarios. False memory, defined as biases arising from spurious correlations, environment shifts, or knowledge conflicts, is hard to detect with standard methods. FAME measures concept drift in hidden states, achieving AUROCs between 76.2% and 96.7% and outperforming baselines on benchmarks such as GSM‑Symbolic, GitChameleon, and BigBench‑Hard.
Large language model (LLM) agents solving multi-step tasks frequently commit to trajectories that are doomed to fail, yet continue to consume substantial inference compute before the failure becomes observable. We show that failure is predictable early from the agent's internal representations: lightweight per-round probes on hidden activations anticipate eventual episode failure as early as the first interaction round, where scorers reading only the agent's observable behavior are barely better than chance.
arXiv:2607. 16247v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: While Vision-Language Models (VLMs) have empowered embodied agents to execute complex household tasks, they struggle to proactively handle dynamically emerging hazards during closed-loop interactions.
