Privileged, but Biased: How PI-Conditioned Teachers Break Self-Distillation

Sarthak Harne, Chinmay Karkar, Yash Pandya +2

Self-distillation (SD) has emerged as a compute-efficient alternative to reinforcement learning with verifiable rewards: a self-teacher, conditioned on privileged information (PI)…

Learning When to Act or Refuse: Guarding Agentic Reasoning Models for Safe Multi-Step Tool Use

Aradhye Agarwal, Gurdit Siyan, Yash Pandya +3

Agentic language models operate in a fundamentally different safety regime than chat models: they must plan, call tools, and execute long-horizon actions where a single misstep, su…

Scaling Agentic Capabilities, Not Context: Efficient Reinforcement Finetuning for Large Toolspaces

Karan Gupta, Pranav Vajreshwari, Yash Pandya +3

Agentic systems operating over large tool ecosystems must plan and execute long-horizon workflows under weak or non-verifiable supervision. While frontier models mitigate these cha…

Fara-7B: An Efficient Agentic Model for Computer Use

Ahmed Awadallah, Yash Lara, Raghav Magazine +9

Progress in computer use agents (CUAs) has been constrained by the absence of large and high-quality datasets that capture how humans interact with a computer. While LLMs have thri…
