When Agents Slow Down: Understanding LLM Agents' Test-Time Strategies via Elo-per-token Analysis

Elo-per-token analysis shows LLM agents' marginal gains drop below independent sampling at scale; parallel sessions beat one long session.

The paper proposes Elo-per-token analysis, using a Bradley-Terry model to measure how agent performance scales with token budget on open-ended tasks with continuous scoring. Across four agents and four benchmarks with sessions up to 100M tokens, agents initially convert tokens to Elo faster than independent sampling but eventually slow below the linear-in-log-compute reference. The authors define a scaling inflection point and show that splitting 100M tokens across parallel sessions on FrontierCS Polyomino Packing gains +264 Elo over one long session and +355 over ten short sessions. Human contestants on shared AtCoder Heuristic Contest tasks improve superlinearly, indicating headroom over current agents.

StepAudio 3 Music Technical Report

StepAudio 3 Music introduces long-form text-controlled music generation using ABC-notation planning and flow-matching diffusion, ranking near the top music arena.

StepAudio 3 Music generates long-form, text-controlled music using a 50-Hz single-codebook tokenizer with 65,536 entries and a flow-matching diffusion Transformer over VAE latents. A Mixture-of-Experts autoregressive model first plans an arrangement in ABC notation (ABC-CoT) before predicting music tokens. With DPO fine-tuning, it tops AudioBox content and production quality scores and reaches Quality Elo 1105 on the Artificial Analysis Music Arena, behind Suno V5.5 and Mureka. Generation covers songs, accompaniment from dry vocals, and cover synthesis up to 5 minutes 30 seconds at 48-kHz output.
