   The Model Swap Workshop: GPT-5.5 vs Kimi vs DeepSeek vs Mistral
   Pamela Fox, Principal Cloud Advocate at Microsoft, runs the same scenarios against GPT-5.5, Kimi K2.6, DeepSeek V4 Flash and Mistral Large 3 on Microsoft Foundry so you can see where models differ and what you can do about it.

   Older models for technical writing?
   The new models like Qwen3.8 27B and DeepSeek V4 Flash etc., all have this terrible, Claude-sounding writing style that I can't stand.

   From Unreliable to Usable: Decomposing Failure Modes and Confidence Signals in LLM Entity Extraction - Evidence from Cyber Threat Intelligence
   Audits of large language model (LLM) extraction from full-length documents report severe unreliability, leaving two questions open: what the failures actually consist of, and whether confidence signals can turn unreliable output into usable output.

   AtomSearch: Evidence-Grounded Tree Search for Agent Skill Optimization
   We introduce AtomSearch, which keeps revision actions local while using subsequent skill states to guide search.

   LLM Agents for Automated Post-Training via Structured Recipe Optimization
   Automated post-training transforms pre-trained large language models (LLMs) into models capable of handling diverse domains by automatically constructing and optimizing a recipe of coupled decisions over data sources, data processing, cross-domain composition, and training configuration under a limited experimental budget.

   Memory Echo in Single-Agent Long-Term Memory: Lifecycle Evaluation and Provenance-Guided Mitigation
   Motivated by research in social cognition and memory psychology on repeated exposure, retrieval, and revision, we define Memory Echo as the excess retrieval exposure gained by historical information from the same source without additional independent evidence, and introduce MEchoBench to evaluate its emergence, correction resistance, persistence, and effect on answers.

   A Decade in a Day: Synthesizing Agent-Native Interfaces from Human-Oriented Software Evolution
   To study this question, we treat software evolution as a natural source of interface variation and introduce DeskIF-Bench, a benchmark of 255 artifact-verified tasks across six desktop applications.

    Beyond Outcome Feedback: Trajectory-Quality-Guided Experience-based Learning
    To address this limitation, we propose TQG-Exp, a trajectory-quality-guided experience-based learning framework that introduces process feedback.

    Locate, Judge, Read: Role-Specialized Tool Agents over a Knowledge-Point Index for Open-Domain Multimodal Document QA
    We present KnowForge, a pipeline separated by job: a hybrid-retrieval knowledge-point index; a Locator agent that can only search; a code-scheduled bridge judge that forces the missing second hop; a typed, size-bounded evidence pool that merges every search's ranking; a Deep Reader agent that can only read text, images and tables; and a synthesizer with a format checker.
