• Abstract summary: We suggest an algorithm and a method to train and implement an assisting agent that provides on-line advice to operators while they attend clients. The agent is domain-independent and can be introduced to new domains without major efforts in design, training and organizing structured knowledge of the professional discipline.

• Abstract: Call centers, in which human operators attend clients using textual chat, are very common in modern e-commerce. Training enough skilled operators who are able to provide good service is a challenge. We suggest an algorithm and a method to train and implement an assisting agent that provides on-line advice to operators while they attend clients. The agent is domain-independent and can be introduced to new domains without major efforts in design, training and organizing structured knowledge of the professional discipline. We demonstrate the applicability of the system in an experiment that realizes its full life-cycle on a specific domain and analyze its capabilities.

  We introduce a fundamental coordination problem called Learning to Yield and Request Control. The objective is to learn a strategy that determines when to act autonomously and when to seek expert assistance. To facilitate empirical research, we introduce YRC-Bench, an open-source benchmark featuring diverse domains.

  Proposer-Agent-Evaluator is a learning system that enables foundation model agents to autonomously discover and practice skills in the wild. At the heart of PAE is a context-aware task proposer that autonomously proposes tasks for the agent to practice with context information. The success evaluation serves as the reward signal for the agent to refine its policies through RL.

  We introduce CRMArena, a benchmark designed to evaluate AI agents on realistic tasks grounded in professional work environments. We show that state-of-the-art LLM agents succeed in less than 40% of the tasks with ReAct prompting, and less than 55% even with function-calling abilities. Our findings highlight the need for enhanced agent capabilities in function-calling and rule-following to be deployed in real-world work environments.
