The paper introduces the AGI Maze Prediction Datasets and Benchmark, a lightweight, procedurally generated grid‑world testbed for evaluating predictive models, particularly Transformers, on tasks such as per‑step transition prediction, fixed‑horizon state prediction, and sequential textual‑observation prediction. It compares byte‑level Transformer baselines with two memory‑augmented architectures, showing that a pseudo‑video spatial‑memory Transformer achieves perfect validation accuracy on selected tasks and improves sequential text‑trace prediction, while a generic auxiliary latent‑memory Transformer does not consistently help. The study highlights that structured, task‑aligned working memory can be more effective than merely increasing latent capacity, and positions the benchmark as a compact setting for testing architectures that couple textual interfaces to learned structured state.

The paper introduces TIDER, a time‑aware retrieval framework that uses a reinforcement‑learning trained temporal interval locator to identify relevant time windows for evidence retrieval in long‑horizon agent memory. By combining temporally grounded candidates with semantic retrieval and reranking them by proximity to the inferred windows, TIDER mitigates the displacement of target memories caused by temporally mismatched yet semantically similar entries. The lightweight 1.7B locator achieves state‑of‑the‑art accuracy on LifeBench and LoCoMo benchmarks, demonstrating the importance of temporal cues for effective evidence retrieval.
