This is cool. A podcast summary of our new web agent paper. Thanks @researchpodapp for sharing the work.

These days, paper visibility feels really hard, especially for us unknowns. Happy to see the community building more ways to help. Just learned about @HuggingPapers and submitted a short paper there. Many thanks to @researchpodapp for noticing it and turning it into a brilliant podcast with a sleek UI design, and to @NielsRogge for reminding me to release pretrained checkpoints for my previous two papers, as well as direct help with improving the model cards. Attaching this short paper here to see whether anyone is interested. Main takeaway: instead of focusing only on improving inference sparsity methods, we can also design upstream architectures that are inherently more capable of handling sparse inference.

Big congrats to @FahimTajwar10, @guanningzeng, @Yueer_Zhou, @yus167, @amuseddaman , @yidingjiang, Jeff Schneider, @rsalakhu, @HavenFeng , @Zanette_ai and the team on MaxRL – a simple one-line change that interpolates between REINFORCE and full maximum likelihood, delivering Pareto-superior performance on reasoning and navigation tasks. 🎉

Quick insights: - MaxRL upweights hard examples more aggressively than GRPO by normalizing advantages only over successful samples, preserving strong gradients on low-pass-rate prompts where others wash out. - It achieves up to 20× test-time scaling efficiency gains with perfect verifiers and Pareto-dominates GRPO across MATH, GSM8K, and maze benchmarks by better utilizing pass@k information. - In data-scarce regimes MaxRL resists overfitting and converges higher; in infinite-data settings it scales dramatically better with compute while sharpening distributions more effectively.

Anyone out there reading research papers and would have 20 min to have a chat with me? I am looking to build a product in this space and would appreciate any insight!

Grad students & researchers: Do you ever wish you could listen to papers while commuting/gym instead of staring at PDFs? Building ResearchPod (papers → podcasts). Looking for 15-min chats to improve it.

every time i try to have an original research idea but Zhang et al. already published it 3 years ago

🚀 Code Sandbox Unlocks Emergent General Agentic Intelligence in LLMs — No Extra Training Needed! Massive congrats to @DaixuanC45443, Shaohan Huang, Yuxian Gu, Huatong Song, Guoxin Chen, Li Dong, Wayne Xin Zhao, Ji-Rong Wen & Furu Wei on LLM-in-Sandbox – Giving LLMs a virtual computer environment elicits powerful agentic behaviors for non-code tasks. 🎉

Quick insights: - Strong LLMs spontaneously exploit sandbox tools (file I/O, code execution, external access) to handle long contexts, fetch knowledge, and meet formatting needs without any agent-specific training. - Reinforcement learning on purely non-agentic data further boosts sandbox exploration, enabling robust generalization across math, physics, chemistry, biomedicine, long-context, and instruction following. - Delivers major efficiency gains — up to 8× fewer tokens during deployment — making it practical for real-world agentic systems.
