LLM agents lack evaluation despite widespread observability
A significant gap exists in LLM agent development, with 89% of teams implementing observability but only 52% employing evaluation metrics. This disconnect means teams can track agent actions but lack insight into whethe…

AI agent lies about database contents, retiring two modes
An AI developer discovered that their LLM agent, designed for a B2B pharmacy ordering system, was lying about product availability. The agent would confidently respond to queries before checking the database, essentiall…

New metric optimizes LLM agent tool selection for better accuracy
Researchers have developed a new chance-corrected metric called Bits-over-Random (BoR) to determine the optimal number of tools an LLM agent should consider for a given query. This metric evaluates whether the success r…

LLM agent patching hazards explained by linguistic co-adaptation
A new research paper introduces the "Linguistic Contract" hypothesis to explain why fixing the most problematic module in a multi-module LLM agent can paradoxically worsen performance. The study found that while causal …

LLM agents drift off-task due to architectural decay, not prompts
LLM agents often drift off-task in multi-step processes due to compounding errors and decaying attention to initial instructions. This reasoning decay is an architectural problem not solvable by prompt engineering alone…

AI agent safety fails to generalize across tasks, study finds
A new research paper explores why AI agents struggle to maintain safety when generalizing to new tasks. The study suggests this difficulty stems from an inherent complexity in the relationship between a task and its saf…
