THE INTERNET IS THINKING
Earlier sources: Artificial Intelligence
Artificial intelligence covers systems that learn from data, generate content, perceive their surroundings, or act toward a goal. Follow model research, agent tooling, evaluation, and the infrastructure used to build and run these systems.
SYMTRI organizes observations from public sources into a living map. Connections reflect shared subject matter; they do not establish causation or endorse a source.
Open in the map ↗6060 classified signals in the fourteen-day window. Recent momentum: steady. These counts include signals awaiting readable evidence.
Earlier sources
Up to ten sources with readable evidence, ordered by their feed timestamp. These archive sources can be older than the live fourteen-day window. This list is a sample, not a measure of total activity. Dates distinguish paper publication, repository creation, model/dataset activity, Hacker News posts, and KEV catalog additions. “First archived” records when SYMTRI first stored the signal.

Image Classifiers are Efficient Self-Supervised Video Representation Learners ↗
We introduce VideoMSN, a Masked Siamese Network framework for efficient self-supervised spatio-temporal representation learning in videos. Instead of relying on heavy 3D architectures or reconstruction-based autoencoders for learning with unlabeled data, we repurpose standard image Vision Transformers by representing videos as super images which are grids composed of frames sampled from videos. From each super image, we construct two views: one with spatial patch masking and the other with temporal frame masking, ensuring no information leakage across frames. A shared Vision Transformer (ViT)…

Ego4WAM: What Matters When Scaling Egocentric Human Data for Robot Learning? ↗
Egocentric human data provides a scalable source of experience for robot learning, but varies substantially in human-robot alignment, behavioral coverage, and available supervision. Existing work shows favorable scaling with increasing human data, but it remains unclear which data properties drive downstream robot gains and how to use such data throughout the training pipeline. We present a systematic study of egocentric human data with different alignment and supervision under a unified world-action model framework. With the model backbone fixed, we disentangle the effects of human-robot alig…

EvoDuet: Bilevel Co-Evolution of Web Searching and Task Solving for Scientific Discovery ↗
Evolutionary search with large language models (LLMs) can stall when progress requires external knowledge the model lacks. Supplying relevant documents helps, but simply adding web search tool can keep returning the same pages as solutions change. We introduce EvoDuet, a bi-level optimization method that co-evolves solutions and search queries with fixed model parameters. At each iteration, a retrieval gate lets the LLM assess its knowledge gap and choose to retrieve new documents, reuse stored ones, or proceed without them. An inner loop refines queries and ranks documents by the solution sco…

Is Weight Tying Still Beneficial for Decoder-Only LLMs in Private Settings Under DP-SGD? ↗
Differentially Private Stochastic Gradient Descent (DP-SGD) is a leading approach for privacy-preserving fine-tuning of large language models (LLMs). Many decoder-only LLMs employ weight tying between input and output embeddings, a design choice originally introduced for parameter efficiency and improved language modeling performance in the non-private setting. However, the impact of weight tying under differentially private training remains largely unexplored. In this work, we investigate the role of weight tying in the DP setting using GPT2 and DistilGPT2 as representative decoder-only archi…

I Have a Stream: Making Self-Supervised Learning Work on Continuous Video ↗
Self-supervised learning draws inspiration from infant visual development, yet standard training pipelines bear little resemblance to it: images are independently sampled and globally shuffled across epochs. We study self-supervised learning from continuous video streams, where frames are consumed in temporal order using strict sliding-window batches, without global reshuffling or multi-epoch replay. To this end, we construct WT++, a 95-hour urban walking-tour video dataset for streaming pretraining. Combined with a comprehensive evaluation suite we find that contrastive and distillation-based…

Turbo Harness: Instance-Adaptive Harness Optimization ↗
Automating the search for effective harnesses is an important step toward enabling agents to recursively self-improve. Existing harness optimizations typically produce a single global harness that is applied uniformly across task instances. However, a harness that works well on average may not be optimal for every instance. We introduce Turbo Harness, a framework that can adapt a globally optimized harness to each instance by reusing information generated during the original optimization process. Specifically, Turbo Harness recycles artifacts produced during a completed global harness optimiza…

WorldAuditBench: Interactive 3D World Auditing with Multimodal Agents ↗
As interactive 3D worlds are increasingly used to study intelligent behavior, it becomes important to develop efficient pipelines for identifying anomalies in these simulated environments, such as floating objects, traversable walls, or objects inconsistent with the surrounding scene. Multimodal AI systems, including vision-language models (VLMs) and vision-language-action models (VLAs), have shown potential for automating this task. However, 3D world auditing is complex, requiring the close coupling of two distinct capabilities: action, to navigate the 3D world and search for anomalies system…

Cogentic: Multi-Agent Orchestration for Automated Proof Discovery ↗
We present Cogentic, a multi-agent harness for automated proof discovery on open research problems. While frontier language models can generate strong mathematical ideas in a single shot, single-shot generation is often insufficient for open problems that require exploring multiple competing conjectures, overcoming subtle technical obstructions, and retaining intermediate progress over a long horizon. Cogentic addresses these challenges through an iterative prove--verify loop in which an orchestrator allocates a population of independent provers across distinct proof directions, subjects their…

MatLoom: Layered Text-to-Material Generation in a Compact Program Space ↗
Material generation should produce not only an appearance, but also the rules that construct it. We introduce MatLoom, a compact, layer-oriented language for text-to-material generation with pretrained language models. Each program composes alpha-masked layers whose shared spatial expressions define coverage and physically based rendering (PBR) channels, making dependencies between patterns, color, and relief explicit. A standalone interpreter evaluates the program into material maps, while the source retains named fields and layer parameters for subsequent authoring. Without task-specific fin…

How to assess evidence about Artificial Intelligence
Check each original source for its methods, release status, limitations, and supporting data. A repository announcement, a preprint, and a published study provide different kinds of evidence. SYMTRI’s subject classification helps discovery; it does not independently validate the source’s claims.
