From Question-First to Analyst-First: Domain-Expert Skills and Verified Knowledge Compilation for Proactive Enterprise Analytics

arXiv:2608.28594v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Conversational analytics systems assume the user already has a well-formed question, leaving a non-expert facing a blank query box on an unfamiliar enterprise schema. Commercial 'proactive' tools narrow this gap only by detecting statistical anomalies over analyst-curated metric layers, and academic next-question recommenders depend on query logs that a fresh…

Statutory AI: Aligning Large Language Models With Legal Norms

arXiv:2608.28593v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: With the increasing development of AI regulatory frameworks, ensuring that artificial intelligence systems, particularly generative models, operate in accordance with legal and ethical standards has become a critical priority. Existing proposals for AI alignment and value-guided behavior, however, face some limitations. Approaches such as Constitutional AI depend on human supervision,…

A collective capability boundary in frontier large language models on guideline-conformant and case-specific oncology decision-making

arXiv:2608.28592v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) achieve high scores on medical knowledge examinations, yet real-world oncology is not a knowledge test--it is a sequence of guideline-pathway choices, escalation judgments, and commitments under uncertainty. Existing benchmarks largely measure factual recall, leaving open whether frontier LLMs share decision-path blind spots that combining models cannot…

Expert-validated STEM QA

arXiv:2608.28591v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Recent advancements in AI are helping scientists achieve breakthroughs in fields such as mathematics, medicine, and materials sciences. New evaluation datasets for AI models contribute to such advancement in AI. In the STEM domain, frontier models have consumed most of the available online data, creating the need for human-created datasets…

DS-Lighting: Making Agent Harnesses Explicit for Data-Science Automation

arXiv:2608.28590v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large Language Model (LLM) agents have shown promise for automating data-science workflows, yet their end-to-end performance depends critically on the agent harness that represents tasks, manages execution state, constrains output artifacts, and provides evaluation feedback. Existing data-science agents often leave this harness implicit, making results difficult to reproduce, compare, and…
