NeurIPS 2025 Workshop on Efficient Reasoning2025As Large Language Models (LLMs) continue to evolve, practitioners face increasing options for enhancing inference-time performance without model retraining, including budget tuning and multi-step techniques like self-reflection. While these methods improve output quality, they create complex trade-offs among accuracy, cost, and latency that remain poorly understood across different domains. This paper systematically

We present Amazon Nova 2, a family of four foundation models designed to meet diverse enterprise needs across reasoning, multimodal processing, and real-time conversational AI. The family includes Nova 2 Lite and Nova 2 Pro — multimodal models with dynamic reasoning capabilities that allow customers to balance accuracy, speed, and efficiency through configurable “extended thinking” controls; Nova 2 Omni

2025Customer service often relies on human agents, which, while effective, can be costly and slower to scale. Recent advancements in intelligent chatbots, particularly Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) models, have significantly enhanced efficiency by integrating large language models with external knowledge retrieval. However, developing a multi-turn RAG-based chatbot for real-world customer service presents

2025Reasoning-enhanced large language models (RLLMs), whether explicitly trained for reasoning or prompted via chain-of-thought (CoT), have achieved state-of-the-art performance on many complex reasoning tasks. However, we uncover a surprising and previously overlooked phenomenon: explicit CoT reasoning can significantly degrade instruction-following accuracy. Evaluating 20+ models on two benchmarks: IFEval

NeurIPS 2025 Workshop on AI for Music2025Recent advances in generative retrieval allow large language models (LLMs) to recommend items by generating their identifiers token by token, rather than using nearest-neighbor search over embeddings. This approach requires each item, such as a music track, to be represented by a compact and semantically meaningful token sequence that LLMs can generate. We propose a multimodal music tokenizer (3MToken)
