Researchers have introduced Acquisition-State Telemetry (AST), a novel model-free architecture designed to monitor the effectiveness of ongoing information gathering in autonomous systems. AST evaluates real-time evidence against declared task requirements, emitting signals that quantify progress and identify informational friction. This system was tested across eight diverse domains, including robotics and dialogue systems, demonstrating its ability to distinguish unproductive stagnation from purposeful exploration. In reinforcement learning experiments, penalizing informational friction enabled agents to achieve higher mission success rates, even under early termination constraints. AI
