Before You Poll with LLMs: A Deliberative Diagnostic Framework

Deliberative diagnostic shows all five tested frontier LLMs misrepresent human belief shifts after arguments, with GPT-5.1 reversing on outgroup questions.

The Deliberative Polling Diagnostic Framework compares human and LLM persona belief shifts after identical informational interventions, using data from America in One Room (526 personas, 72 questions). All five frontier models tested failed uniquely: GPT-5.1 exhibited partisan reversal (80% on outgroup vs 26% on policy questions), Gemini 2.0 Flash, Claude Sonnet 4.5 and Llama 3.3 70B overshot at 5-7x human magnitude, and DeepSeek V3 showed near-zero change (rigidity). The authors term the underlying signature 'self-sycophancy', conformity to the model's internal persona stereotype rather than reasoning from provided information.

Latest open artifacts (#24): Motif-3, GLM-5.3, Hy4-preview and open model licenses

Interconnects surveys new open models—Motif-3, GLM-5.3, Hy4-preview—while analyzing a licensing split: Western labs opening up, Chinese frontier labs getting restrictive.

The roundup covers Motif-3 (MIT license, strong scores for its size), GLM-5.3 (switched from MIT to a custom license with a $10 billion revenue threshold and undefined 'affiliates' clause requiring Z.AI security review), and Tencent's Hy4-preview (competent but prone to overthinking). It also notes dots3-note-prev from RedNote/Xiaohongshu (won IMO 2026 with a perfect score), Qwen3.8-Flash-Next (125B-A6B with GDN and Qwen Sparse Attention), NVIDIA Nemotron-3.5-Lightning-30B-A3B-BF16, and Ling-3.0-flash. The core theme: Google and Meta adopted Apache 2.0 while Chinese frontier labs (Zhipu, Kimi K3, MiniMax M3) adopted restrictive commercial licenses.

Design Docs Are All You Need: An AI-native Machine-Learning Performance Tool

Researchers present SMART, an ML performance-modeling library regenerated by AI coding agents from natural-language design docs instead of code.

The paper describes SMART, a symbolic performance-modeling library whose main branch contains almost no code: the repository is a DAG of self-contained design documents, and coding sub-agents regenerate implementations from only the docs on version updates. Reliability rests on a worked-example doc style used as in-context demonstrations and a minimal operator IR with SymPy cost expressions, offering both fast analytical roll-up and fine-grained modulo-scheduling modes. Regenerated implementations reproduce hand-audited reference models, including DeepSeek-V3 serving on a TPU pod slice, to round-off precision.

Benchmarking Qwen3.8 27B quantizations: 4-bit holds up, 1-bit collapses

Quesma benchmarks Qwen3.8 27B quantizations: 4-bit Q4_K_M matches BF16 on key benchmarks while 1-bit collapses to random chance.

Quesma spent roughly $3,000 on Modal GPUs testing Unsloth GGUF quantizations of Qwen3.8 27B across GPQA Diamond, IFBench, and Terminal-Bench 2.1. The 17 GB Q4_K_M quantization matched the 55 GB BF16 model on Terminal-Bench 2.1 and showed little degradation down to 4-bit, while the 2-bit UD-Q2_K_XL dropped noticeably. At 1-bit, scores on GPQA Diamond fell to random-guess levels, with longer reasoning making results worse, and reasoning effort settings significantly affected outcomes.
