Content Scraping: BBC droht Perplexity mit rechtlichen Schritten
Die KI-Suchmaschine Perplexity soll mutmaßlich Inhalte des öffentlich-rechtlichen Rundfunks Großbritanniens nutzen. Perplexity wittert dagegen Monopolismus.

Hard pass.

LLMs are starving for knowledge graphs. Raphael Troncy was pointing out that many LLM company crawlers are constantly visiting their KGs. Some crawlers even perform explicit SPARQL queries on the KGs.

Can Compressed LLMs Truly Act? An Empirical Evaluation of Agentic Capabilities in LLM Compression
Post-training compression reduces the computational and memory costs of large language models (LLMs), enabling resource-efficient deployment. However, existing compression benchmarks only focus on language modeling (e.g., perplexity) and natural language understanding tasks (e.g., GLUE accuracy), ignoring the agentic capabilities - workflow, tool use/function call, long-context understanding and real-world application. We introduce the Agent Compression Benchmark (ACBench), the first comprehens…

Esoteric Language Models
Diffusion-based language models offer a compelling alternative to autoregressive (AR) models by enabling parallel and controllable generation. Among this family of models, Masked Diffusion Models (MDMs) achieve the strongest performance but still underperform AR models in perplexity and lack key inference-time efficiency features--most notably, KV caching. In this work, we introduce Eso-LMs, a new family of models that fuses AR and MDM paradigms, enabling smooth interpolation between their perp…
