• Abstract: Goal-directed interactive agents, which autonomously complete tasks through interactions with their environment, can assist humans in various domains of their daily lives. Recent advances in large language models (LLMs) led to a surge of new, more and more challenging tasks to evaluate such agents. To properly contextualize performance across these tasks, it is imperative to understand the different challenges they pose to agents. To this end, this survey compiles relevant tasks and environments for evaluating goal-directed interactive agents, structuring them along dimensions relevant for understanding current obstacles.

• Interactive Agents to Overcome Ambiguity in Software Engineering [61.40183840499932]
  AI agents are increasingly being deployed to automate tasks, often based on ambiguous and underspecified user instructions. Making unwarranted assumptions and failing to ask clarifying questions can lead to suboptimal outcomes. We study the ability of LLM agents to handle ambiguous instructions in interactive code generation settings by evaluating proprietary and open-weight models on their performance.

  Large language model (LLM)-based agents have been increasingly used to interact with external environments. Current frameworks do not enable these agents to work with users and interact with them to align on the details of their tasks. This work introduces ReSpAct, a novel framework that combines the essential skills for building task-oriented "conversational" agents.

We introduce the Multi-Agent Interaction Evaluation Framework (AntEval), encompassing a novel interaction framework and evaluation methods.
