Aligning LLMs with Human Uncertainty: A Beta-Bernoulli Calibrator for LLM Forecasting

CoRR · 2026-05-26

A simple post-hoc calibrator that maps an LLM's verbalized point forecast to a Beta distribution over event probability, trained on binary outcomes and human forecasts.

Seeking the Unfamiliar but Memorable: Conceptual Creativity as Meta-Learning

CoRR · 2026-05-15

Creativity is producing stimuli that are unfamiliar at first sight but quickly learnable from a few exposures. A Creator-Appraiser meta-learning loop lets a frozen diffusion model generate novel concepts the base model would not.

The Self Requires Learning

PhilPapers preprint · 2026-04-08

We argue self-consciousness requires a learned self — bounded integration of experience produces a perspective that, under continuous order-sensitive learning, becomes a temporally extended identity that current AI systems lack.

Temporal Straightening for Latent Planning

ICML 2026 · 2026-03-12

Inspired by the perceptual straightening hypothesis in human vision, we introduce temporal straightening to improve representation learning for latent planning.

Local Reinforcement Learning with Action-Conditioned Root Mean Squared Q-Functions

ICLR 2026 · 2025-10-08

Action-conditioned Root mean squared Q-Functions (ARQ) is a novel backprop-free value estimation method that applies a goodness function and action conditioning for local reinforcement learning.
