  1. Reading Subtext: Evaluating Large Language Models on Short Story Summarization with Writers (2024 · 30 citations)
    Testing how well LLMs grasp fiction is hard. Published stories have probably been seen during training, and judging long-form summaries is slow and expensive. This paper avoids both problems by working with skilled creative writers, who contributed their own unpublished short stories and then rated model summaries of…
  2. Budget-Aware Anytime Reasoning with LLM-Synthesized Preference Data (2026)
    The paper looks at how LLMs behave when reasoning is cut short by a fixed token or latency budget. In such cases, a usable partial answer delivered early can be worth more than a complete answer that arrives too late. The authors build an evaluation pipeline that works in three steps. First, it samples…
