Runtime optimizations and a thorough evaluation process driven by agentic AI help ensure that models written in PyTorch will execute efficiently and reliably on Trainium systems.
Expanding the mix of synthetic data used to train a tabular foundation model enables it to adapt to new tables without new models and lead the single-model field on the TabArena benchmark.
Using the Neuron Kernel Interface, a Reactor–AWS collaboration tackled the dynamic shapes, memory access patterns, and cache management that make real-time autoregressive diffusion hard—building techniques that generalize across models.
Three new papers from Amazon Bio Discovery address bottlenecks in AI-driven antibody engineering, from benchmarking binding predictors to experimentally validating de novo design.
New research indicates that AI agents learn compressible models of data, which don’t have enough space to enable memorization.

2026Unified Multi-Modal Generation (UMMG) models support seamless switching between generation tasks spanning multiple modality combinations within a single conversational interface. However, existing safety benchmarks construct prompts independently per modality, so different modalities cover different harmful intentions, preventing holistic evaluation of UMMG models. We propose an intention-grounded evaluation

AACL 20262026Large language model (LLM)-based agents are widely deployed in user-facing services but remain error-prone in new tasks, tend to repeat the same failure patterns, and show substantial run-to-run variability. Fixing failures via environment-specific training or manual patching is costly and hard to scale. To enable self-evolving agents in user-facing service environments, we propose WISE-Flow, a workflow-centric

2026Local search systems must determine WHERE to search before retrieving results. We present OmniQUM, a fine-tuned 7B model for generative location disambiguation: given a query and geo-coordinates, it produces a disambiguated location target and bounding box decision in a single pass. Unlike NER + gazetteer pipelines, it jointly reasons over query intent and geographic context. We train across 14 locales

INLG 20262026Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) systems are built on an unexamined assumption: that queries have correct answers and retrieval should converge toward them. This position paper argues that this creates a factual bias where RAG systems optimize for reducing epistemic uncertainty while ignoring the aleatoric uncertainty, inherent in opinion-rich content. The consequences go beyond technical limitations

KDD 2026 Workshop on Evaluation and Trustworthiness of Agentic AI2026Deploying LLM-based agentic systems in high-stakes operational settings requires achieving trustworthiness, explainability, consistency, and adaptability simultaneously. Existing approaches such as manual expert audit, supervised classifiers, or hard-coded rule systems struggle to achieve them within a unified framework. In this paper, we introduce a LLM-based rule learning framework comprising three modules
