- Abstract: The Bhatt Conjectures framework introduces rigorous, hierarchical benchmarks for evaluating AI reasoning and understanding, moving beyond pattern matching to assess representation invariance, robustness, and metacognitive self-awareness. The agentreasoning-sdk demonstrates practical implementation, revealing that current AI models struggle with complex reasoning tasks and highlighting the need for advanced evaluation protocols to distinguish genuine cognitive abilities from statistical inference. https://github.com/mbhatt1/agentreasoning-sdk

Cultural AI benchmarks often rely on implicit assumptions about measured constructs, leading to vague formulations with poor validity and unclear interrelations.
We propose exposing these assumptions using explicit cognitive models formulated as Structural Equation Models.

We argue that explanations serve as mediators between models and stakeholders, whether for intrinsically interpretable models or opaque black-box models.
We illustrate these criteria, as well as specific evaluation methods, using examples from an ongoing study of an interpretable neural network for predicting a particular learner behavior.

Capabilities of Language Models [107.07851578154242]
Language models (LMs) have strong multi-step (i.e., procedural) reasoning capabilities.
It is unclear whether LMs perform tasks by cheating with answers memorized from pretraining corpus, or, via a multi-step reasoning mechanism.
We show that MechanisticProbe is able to detect the information of the reasoning tree from the model's attentions for most examples.

Theory of Mind (ToM) is a critical component of intelligence but its assessment remains the subject of heated debates.
Here, we leverage dynamic epistemic logic to isolate a particular component of ToM and to generate controlled problems.
Our findings indicate that some language model scaling does not consistently yield results better than random chance.
