    Mitigating Social Sycophancy via Pluralistic Preference Optimization

    arXiv:2610.02568v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Personal advice, including relationship advice, now ranks among the most common uses of generative AI. But language models (LMs) exhibit sycophancy: they affirm users much more often than humans do, which can make people overconfident and less willing to repair their relationships after a conflict. Prior work on mitigating sycophancy has focused on factual settings where a response can be checked against a ground truth answer, while mitigations for social sycophancy (e.g., personal advice, where there is no ground truth) have relied on simple pro

    HXAI: Hierarchical Privacy-Preserving Explainable AI in Distributed Energy Systems

    arXiv:2610.02504v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Balancing electricity demand and supply is increasingly difficult due to the inherent intermittency of renewable power generation and the stochastic power consumption. Grid operators require fine-grained, decision-relevant insights into household energy consumption to manage peak loads and design responsive tariffs, but increased transparency at this level raises significant privacy concerns. Traditional methods for explainable AI (XAI) can reveal sensitive information, while standard privacy techniques often reduce the usefulness of explanations

    Answering clinicians' questions over trial evidence tables with verifiable, feedback-driven language models

    arXiv:2610.02576v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Systematic reviews condense clinical trials into evidence tables, yet clinicians can interrogate these tables only through database queries, and many questions concern attributes that the table does not record, such as a drug's target class or a harmonised endpoint. Here we introduce FD-SCoPE, a language-model framework that answers both kinds of question, exposes the query, the selected trials and the derivation rule behind every answer, and learns from expert corrections. On an oncology evidence table of 159 immune checkpoint inhibitor trial re

    Batched Speech Decisions Without Decoding: Single-Token Supervision Lets a Frozen LLM Hear Beyond the Transcript

    arXiv:2610.02638v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Full-duplex voice agents make many small, closed decisions, which current systems answer by slow autoregressive decoding. We propose DuplexJev, which feeds ASR-encoder hidden states through a small connector into a frozen LLM and reads each question as a single-token distribution over its options. Nothing is decoded, and an 8-GPU node answers 80 decisions about eight utterances in about 0.1 s. With a last-layer connector, spoken QA stays close to reading the transcript (90% vs. 91%). DuplexJev also hears the speaker: gender and emotion accuracy b

    On-Premises Multi-Course RAG Tutoring for Business Education: Hardware-Software Trade-offs in a Campus AI Tutor

    arXiv:2610.02510v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Campus AI tutors based on retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) must ground answers in assigned course materials while keeping textbooks and student dialogue on institutional infrastructure. We present CourseChat, an on-premises, multi-course RAG tutor for undergraduate business education, deployed behind a campus web gateway and intended for use embedded in Moodle. Six isolated course offerings, each keyed by its own course reference number (CRN), share twin-edge AI hosts running a FastAPI service, a local vector database, and a local large langu
