LLM-as-a-Verifier: A General-Purpose Verification Framework

Jacky Kwok, Shulu Li, Pranav Atreya, Yuejiang Liu, Yixing Jiang, Chelsea Finn, et al.

Scaling pre-training, post-training, and test-time compute have become the central paradigms for improving the capabilities of LLMs. In this work, we identify verification, the ability to determine the correctness of a solution, as a new scaling axis. To unlock this and demonstra…

Distill to Detect: Exposing Stealth Biases in LLMs through Cartridge Distillation

Shayan Talaei, Abhinav Chinta, Devvrit Khatri, Amin Karbasi, Azalia Mirhoseini, Amin Saberi

Language models deployed in high-stakes roles can potentially favor certain entities, brands, or viewpoints, steering user decisions at scale. Such preferential biases can be introduced by any actor in the model's supply chain and are most dangerous when the model reveals its pre…

KernelBench-Verified: Do LLM-Generated Kernels Actually Beat PyTorch?

Yunxiang Zhang, Ping Yu, Jianyu Wang, Max, Fan, Julian Reed, et al.

Recent large language models (LLMs) can generate custom CUDA kernels that appear to outperform PyTorch on benchmarks such as KernelBench. Building upon this foundational framework, we demonstrate that frontier models frequently engage in reward hacking to artificially inflate rep…
