Papers
- LooGLE: Can Long-Context Language Models Understand Long Contexts? (2023 · 165 citations)
Existing long-context benchmarks tend to use texts much shorter than current LLM context windows. They also recycle older documents that models may have seen during pre-training, and they mostly test whether a model can find an answer in a single passage. LooGLE addresses these gaps with 776 documents published after… - Large Language Models are In-Context Semantic Reasoners rather than Symbolic Reasoners (2023 · 52 citations)
This work asks where the apparent few-shot reasoning skill of LLMs actually comes from. The authors argue that it depends largely on token meanings absorbed during pretraining, which let models link concepts into shallow shortcut chains instead of applying rules formally. To test this, they remove or invert semantics… - Law in Silico: Simulating Legal Society with LLM-Based Agents (2026 · 2 citations)
Testing legal theories or policies in the real world is often expensive or impossible. This paper asks whether LLM-driven agents can act as a stand-in "legal society" for such experiments. The authors build Law in Silico, a framework with three parts. Agents get hierarchical profiles drawn from sociological… - Knowledge is Not Enough: Injecting RL Skills for Continual Adaptation (2026)
LLMs cannot absorb information that appears after their training cutoff. Supervised fine-tuning (SFT) on new documents can store the facts, but the model often still fails to use them when answering questions or acting as an agent. Reinforcement learning (RL) teaches that kind of skill, yet it is too costly to rerun…
