Automated Textbook Auditing with Multi-Agent LLM Systems

arXiv:2607. 11276v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Ensuring the quality of educational materials requires more than standard proofreading: textbooks must be audited for factual accuracy, domain-specific technical correctness, and linguistic quality simultaneously -- a task that general-purpose grammar checkers cannot address.

The Path to Self-Evolving Clinical Systems: Scaling Medical Agents from Assistance to Autonomy

arXiv:2607. 11175v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The growing ability of large language models and vision language models to jointly interpret and reason over images and text is reshaping medical agents, moving them from task specific predictors toward autonomous systems that perceive, reason, plan, remember, and act in clinical environments.

Information-seeking failures of large language models in agentic clinical reasoning

arXiv:2607. 10275v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models achieve high scores on medical knowledge assessments, yet clinical reasoning requires actively deciding what to investigate under uncertainty.
