    How well can AI research agents explore new scientific ideas? The latest paper from our lab, Heuresis, combines coding agents with search and quality-diversity algorithms. Algorithms that provide better exploration are the key to unlock new ideas. Check out this thread👇

    Key to realizing Auto Research Agents that can make novel discoveries in AI is understanding and improving their exploration capabilities. To this end, we built Heuresis, a composable framework that combines coding agents with arbitrary search algorithms within a flexible loop.

    Human perception is inherently situated – we understand the world relative to our own body, viewpoint, and motion. To deploy multimodal foundation models in embodied settings, we ask: “Can these models reason in the same observer-centric way?” We study this through SAW-Bench:
