Stellar Colosseum: A Many-Agent Harness for Long-Horizon Research in Mathematics and Theoretical Computer Science

Stellar Colosseum, a many-agent harness for long-horizon math and TCS research, solves open problems and reaches 71% on TCS-Bench with Gemini models.

Stellar Colosseum is a model-agnostic harness that allocates inference across long-horizon research in mathematics and theoretical computer science, using strategy exploration, a readiness gate, section-level decomposition, and verifier feedback routing. Integrated into Google Antigravity's Teamwork framework as the Long Proof pattern, it obtains new results on open problems from FOCS and JMLR papers using Gemini 3.1 Pro. On TCS-Bench it achieves 71.0% accuracy with Gemini 3.1 Pro and Gemini 3.7 Flash, and a Codeforces evaluation with Gemini 3.1 Pro solves 218 of 222 problems.

Can LLMs Engineer Their Own Agent Harness? ByteDance Seed’s HarnessDev Says Only 34 of 64 Changes Generalize

ByteDance Seed's HarnessDev benchmark finds LLM-built agent harnesses trail human engineering on code and search, with only 34 of 64 revisions generalizing.

Researchers from ByteDance Seed, SUTD, Georgia Tech, M-A-P, and TokenWave.AI introduce HarnessDev, a benchmark that evaluates the runnable agent harness an LLM writes rather than its answers, using Creation and Evolution stages across SWE-bench Pro, Terminal-Bench 2.1, MLE-bench, EQ-Bench3, and BrowseComp (2,207 instances). Six creator models including Opus 4.8, GPT-5.5, Gemini 3.1 Pro, DeepSeek V4 Pro, Qwen 3.7 Max, and Seed 2.0 Pro were tested; Opus 4.8 posted the best average of 67.8 versus an 86.2 human-engineered reference. Self-built harnesses beat references on writing and ML experimentation but lag badly on code and search, and quality proved executor-specific: Opus 4.8 fell from 69.3 to 33.0 on SWE-bench Pro when the executor was switched to Gemini. Evolution gains were small and noisy: of 64 adjacent changes, feedback and held-out scores agreed only 34 times (53.1%), and much generated state and memory code never executed.

An AI CAPTCHA solver talked itself out of the right answer

Bern researchers solved rotation CAPTCHAs in 0.006 seconds with classical computer vision, while Gemini 3.1 Pro needed 67 seconds and overruled correct tool answers.

Researchers at Bern University of Applied Sciences built a script using 1970s circle-detection math and signal matching that solved rotation CAPTCHAs in 0.006 seconds, scoring 10/10 on real-world puzzles. Frontier models fared poorly: Gemini 3.1 Pro scored 7/10 taking 67 seconds, while GPT-4o and Grok scored 1/10. When given the script's correct answer as a tool, Gemini overruled it and lost a fifth of its score; models could verbally describe targets, such as identifying a cyan ring, but could not produce accurate click coordinates. The paper also notes these no-JavaScript CAPTCHAs reduce tracking, leaving only shape-matching tasks classical vision solves easily.

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.

Import AI 469: Science AI; RSI simulator; and Zuck's technological pessimism

New DiG-bench benchmark of 70 hidden-rule games shows only Opus 5 and Fable 5 solving the hardest tiers, probing AI discovery and creativity.

Import AI 469 highlights DiG-bench (Discovery in Games), a benchmark of 70 handcrafted games with hidden rules and objectives where only 21 games are public and most are kept private to avoid training contamination. Only Opus 5 and Fable 5 with Claude Code solved any Tier 7 tasks (about 0.2 success), with GPT-5.5 next; the games are text-based and have beaten every human tester at least once. The newsletter also covers an RSI simulator game by Paradigm Research and Inherent's Faraday, a post-trained open-weight model that supervises frontier models to improve scientific research output.

Realtime-Venus: A full-duplex interaction system with asynchronous delegation

Realtime-Venus introduces two 9B full-duplex interaction models (Omni and Audio) that outperform Gemini 3.1 Live and GPT-4o on continuation metrics.

Realtime-Venus is a proactive full-duplex interaction system built on two separately trained 9B models: Realtime-Venus-Omni for audio-visual interaction and Realtime-Venus-Audio for spoken interaction. A dual-loop runtime lets foreground interaction continue while Realtime-Venus-Harness asynchronously executes background reasoning and tool tasks. Realtime-Venus-Omni leads on six of eight video benchmarks, including StreamingBench (70.2%), OVO-Bench (64.7%), and Daily-Omni (81.3%), while Realtime-Venus-Audio tops MMAU (78.0%) and MMAU-Pro (63.2%). On Full-Duplex-Bench v1.5, Realtime-Venus-Audio handles 75% of interruptions and exceeds Gemini 3.1 Live and GPT-4o on all three continuation metrics.
