arXiv:2506.09084v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Whole-page optimization (WPO) decides how search and recommendation results are surfaced to users, and large language models (LLMs) open a new route to it by treating page generation as sequence generation. Adapting LLMs to web-scale WPO, however, remains bottlenecked by the need for costly human annotations and by the mismatched granularity between page-level coherence and item-level placement. In this work we show that these two challenges are coupled: implicit user feedback alone suffices for alignment, provided the reward signal is decoupled into two complementary granularities. We propose PageLLM, a reward-based fine-tuning framework that (i) turns implicit feedback into four contrastive preference-pair families covering relevance, ranking, diversity, and redundancy, (ii) learns a coarse page-level reward and a fine item-level reward that captures engagement-sensitive position swaps, and (iii) combines both rewards in PPO-based RLHF over a pre-trained LLM. Extensive experiments on seven Amazon categories against eleven baselines show that neither reward alone is sufficient -- dropping the page-level or item-level signal reduces NDCG@100 by 17.8% and 15.2% respectively, whereas the joint reward improves NDCG@100 by up to 46.8%. Deployed in a 10M-user online A/B test, PageLLM raises GMV by 0.44% and click-through rate by 0.14%, confirming that multi-grained rewards from implicit feedback scale to production WPO. Code and data are available at an anonymized repository.

arXiv:2604.00986v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We study whether phone-use agents respect privacy while completing benign mobile tasks. This question has remained hard to answer because privacy-compliant behavior is not operationalized for phone-use agents, and ordinary apps do not reveal exactly what data agents type into which form entries during execution. To make this question measurable, we introduce MyPhoneBench, a verifiable evaluation framework for privacy behavior in mobile agents. We operationalize privacy-respecting phone use as permissioned access, minimal disclosure, and user-controlled memory through a minimal privacy contract, iMy, and pair it with instrumented mock apps plus rule-based auditing that make unnecessary permission requests, deceptive re-disclosure, and unnecessary form filling observable and reproducible. Across five frontier models on 10 mobile apps and 300 tasks, we find that task success, privacy-compliant task completion, and later-session use of saved preferences are distinct capabilities, and no single model dominates all three. Evaluating success and privacy jointly reshuffles the model ordering relative to either metric alone. The most persistent failure mode across models is simple data minimization: agents still fill optional personal entries that the task does not require. These results show that privacy failures arise from over-helpful execution of benign tasks, and that success-only evaluation overestimates the deployment readiness of current phone-use agents. All code, mock apps, and agent trajectories are publicly available at~ https://github.com/FreedomIntelligence/MyPhoneBench.

arXiv:2511.06185v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: The growing demand for artificial intelligence (AI) applications in materials discovery, molecular modeling, and climate science has made data preparation a critical but labor-intensive bottleneck. Raw data from diverse sources must be cleaned, normalized, and transformed to become AI-ready, where effective feature transformation and selection are essential for robust learning. We present Dataforge, an LLM-powered agentic data engineering platform for tabular data that is automatic, safe, and non-expert friendly. It autonomously performs data cleaning and iteratively optimizes feature operations under a budgeted feedback loop with automatic stopping. Across tabular benchmarks, it achieves the best overall downstream performance; ablations further confirm the roles of routing/iterative refinement and grounding in accuracy and reliability. Dataforge demonstrates a practical path toward autonomous data agents that transform raw data from data to better data.
