New benchmark reveals critical limitations in omnimodal LLMs' interaction capabilities

Researchers have introduced Omni-InteractScope, a new benchmark designed to evaluate omnimodal large language models (Omni-LLMs) on their ability to interact proactively and agentically within continuous audiovisual streams. The benchmark, comprising 1,479 human-annotated interactions, reveals significant limitations in current Omni-LLMs, including unreliable timely tool invocation, poor coverage of query-free reminders, and limited end-to-end guidance capabilities. The findings highlight the need for developing and evaluating streaming assistants that can act promptly, take initiative based on general user needs, and provide comprehensive response sequences. AI

IMPACT Highlights key areas for improvement in omnimodal LLMs, particularly in proactive and agentic interaction within continuous data streams.

    Omni-InteractScope: Benchmarking Proactive and Agentic Interaction in Continuous Omnimodal Streams

    arXiv:2610.35439v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Omnimodal large language models (Omni-LLMs) are increasingly expected to assist users while observing continuous audiovisual streams. However, existing evaluations provide limited insight into how reliably these models connect strea…
