Robust Human-AI Complementarity under Uncertainty
arXiv:2607. 06656v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Machine learning models are often intended to augment rather than replace human decision makers, by providing information that is complementary to human judgement.

Towards Human-AI Complementarity for AI Safety
The paper investigates human‑AI complementarity as a strategy for safer AI oversight, arguing that humans and models making different mistakes can combine judgments to produce stronger oversight signals. The authors present the largest known suite of safety‑relevant tasks (3,957 instances across 8 datasets and 6 domains) and a platform for measuring performance of humans, AI, and hybrid systems. Their study, based on 35,613 judgments from 416 raters, shows a notable complementarity effect but also finds that the tested assistance methods rarely improve over the best single source and that human raters corrected AI errors less often even as overall accuracy rose.

Bringing AI to Autonomous Systems -- From Cognition to Collective Intelligence
The article discusses autonomous systems as the pinnacle of AI development, emphasizing the need to blend connectionist and symbolic AI within systems engineering. It introduces a generic agent architecture that organizes behavior around long‑term memory and outlines challenges in linking sensory data to structured memory, goal‑oriented decision making, planning, and agent coordination for collective intelligence. The authors also explore agent trustworthiness, noting it extends beyond behavior to include cognitive validity, and propose methods for its evaluation while highlighting the gap between current capabilities and the envisioned autonomous multi‑agent systems.
