| Challenge: | Negotiation is a fundamental challenge for AI agents as it requires an ability to reason strategically, model opponents, and balance cooperation with competition. |
| Approach: | They propose to use a self-play setup to compare commercial and open-weight large language models to their vanilla counterparts in three different languages to examine trade-offs between performance and cost. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model improves GPT-5's performance by 31.4 % while increasing its cost by nearly 400 %. |

Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | a recent study shows that human and Large Language Model preferences are important for model fine-tuning and evaluation. |
| Approach: | They dissect the preferences of human and 32 different Large Language Models to understand their quantitative composition. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model is compared with 32 different large language models using real-world user-model conversations. |
