Protective Capacity Hallucination: When Large Language Models Claim Nonexistent Capabilities

arXiv:2607. 13596v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: When cast as the protector of a vulnerable user yet given no explicit capability boundary, a large language model (LLM) may respond not by acknowledging its limits but by claiming to have taken -- or to be taking -- a real-world protective action it cannot perform, such as contacting emergency services or administering care.

Inference Economics of Enterprise Coding Agents: A Case Study of Cloud vs. On-Premise LLMs

arXiv:2607. 13080v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Autonomous coding agents force engineering organizations to choose between API-based frontier models -- strong reasoning at high token cost -- and on-premise quantized open-weights models, which promise low-marginal-cost scaling and data sovereignty at some loss of reasoning fidelity.

RADAR: Closed-Loop Robotic Data Generation via Semantic Planning and Autonomous Causal Environment Reset

arXiv:2603. 11811v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: The acquisition of large-scale physical interaction data, a critical prerequisite for modern robot learning, is severely bottlenecked by the prohibitive cost and scalability limits of human-in-the-loop collection paradigms.

Not All Needles Are Found: How Fact Distribution and Don't Make It Up Prompts Shape Retrieval, Reasoning, and Hallucination in Long-Context LLMs

arXiv:2601. 02023v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: As Large Language Models (LLMs) increasingly utilize massive context windows as working memory for autonomous tasks, their reliability fluctuates significantly depending on how information is distributed in real-world corpora.

ShortOPD: Recovering Pruned LLMs with Short-to-Long On-Policy Distillation

arXiv:2607. 13124v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Structured pruning is a hardware-friendly way to compress LLMs, but it is mostly validated on multiple-choice recognition tasks, while the same compressed checkpoints can collapse on the free-form generation that deployment actually requires.
