AI Research Preference Models

Thomas Simon Foster, Bassel Al Omari, Tingchen Fu +30

AI research agents (AIRA) can now carry machine learning experiments from proposal through implementation and evaluation. Yet progress on frontier tasks is throttled by the cost of…

ProgramBench: Can Language Models Rebuild Programs From Scratch?

John Yang, Kilian Lieret, Jeffrey Ma +9

Turning ideas into full software projects from scratch has become a popular use case for language models. Agents are being deployed to seed, maintain, and grow codebases over exten…

Toward Training Superintelligent Software Agents through Self-Play SWE-RL

Yuxiang Wei, Zhiqing Sun, Emily McMilin +6

While current software agents powered by large language models (LLMs) and agentic reinforcement learning (RL) can boost programmer productivity, their training data (e.g., GitHub i…

CWM: An Open-Weights LLM for Research on Code Generation with World Models

FAIR CodeGen team, Jade Copet, Quentin Carbonneaux +48

We release Code World Model (CWM), a 32-billion-parameter open-weights LLM, to advance research on code generation with world models. To improve code understanding beyond what can…

Underspecification in Language Modeling Tasks: A Causality-Informed Study of Gendered Pronoun Resolution

Emily McMilin

Modern language modeling tasks are often underspecified: for a given token prediction, many words may satisfy the user's intent of producing natural language at inference time, how…

Selection Collider Bias in Large Language Models

Emily McMilin

In this paper we motivate the causal mechanisms behind sample selection induced collider bias (selection collider bias) that can cause Large Language Models (LLMs) to learn uncondi…

Selection Bias Induced Spurious Correlations in Large Language Models

Emily McMilin

In this work we show how large language models (LLMs) can learn statistical dependencies between otherwise unconditionally independent variables due to dataset selection bias. To d…
