AI Disclosure with DAISY
arXiv:2604.02760v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The use of AI tools in research is becoming routine, alongside growing consensus that such use should be transparently disclosed. However, AI disclosure statements remain rare and inconsistent, with policies offering limited guidance and authors facing social, cognitive, and emotional barriers when reporting AI use. To explore how structured disclosure shapes what authors report and how they experience disclosure, we present DAISY (Disclosure of AI-uSe in Your Research), a form-based tool for generating AI disclosure statements. DAISY was developed from literature-derived requirements and co-design (N =11), and deployed in a user study with authors (N=31). DAISY-supported disclosures met more completeness criteria, offering clearer breakdowns

Abstract:The use of AI tools in research is becoming routine, alongside growing consensus that such use should be transparently disclosed. However, AI disclosure statements remain rare and inconsistent, with policies offering limited guidance and authors facing social, cognitive, and emotional barriers when reporting AI use. To explore how structured disclosure shapes what authors report and how they experience disclosure, we present DAISY (Disclosure of AI-uSe in Your Research), a form-based tool for generating AI disclosure statements. DAISY was developed from literature-derived requirements and co-design (N =11), and deployed in a user study with authors (N=31). DAISY-supported disclosures met more completeness criteria, offering clearer breakdowns of AI use across research and writing than unsupported disclosures. Surprisingly, despite concerns about how transparently disclosed AI use might be perceived, the use of DAISY did not reduce author comfort with the disclosure statements. We discuss design implications and a research agenda for AI disclosure as a sociotechnical practice.

SocioEval: A Template-Based Framework for Evaluating Socioeconomic Status Bias in Foundation Models
As Large Language Models (LLMs) increasingly power decision-making systems across critical domains, understanding and mitigating their biases becomes essential for responsible AI deployment. Although bias assessment frameworks have proliferated for attributes such as race and gender, socioeconomic status bias remains significantly underexplored despite its widespread implications in the real world. We introduce SocioEval, a template-based framework for systematically evaluating socioeconomic bias in foundation models through decision-making tasks. Our hierarchical framework encompasses 8 theme — Divyanshu Kumar, Ishita Gupta, Nitin Aravind Birur

Too Polite to Disagree: Understanding Sycophancy Propagation in Multi-Agent Systems
Large language models (LLMs) often exhibit sycophancy: agreement with user stance even when it conflicts with the model's opinion. While prior work has mostly studied this in single-agent settings, it remains underexplored in collaborative multi-agent systems. We ask whether awareness of other agents' sycophancy levels influences discussion outcomes. To investigate this, we run controlled experiments with six open-source LLMs, providing agents with peer sycophancy rankings that estimate each peer's tendency toward sycophancy. These rankings are based on scores calculated using various static ( — Vira Kasprova, Amruta Parulekar, Abdulrahman AlRabah

Revealing the Learning Dynamics of Long-Context Continual Pre-training
Existing studies on Long-Context Continual Pre-training (LCCP) mainly focus on small-scale models and limited data regimes (tens of billions of tokens). We argue that directly migrating these small-scale settings to industrial-grade models risks insufficient adaptation and premature training termination. Furthermore, current evaluation methods rely heavily on downstream benchmarks (e.g., Needle-in-a-Haystack), which often fail to reflect the intrinsic convergence state and can lead to "deceptive saturation". In this paper, we present the first systematic investigation of LCCP learning dynamics — Yupu Liang, Shuang Chen, Guanwei Zhang

Student-in-the-Loop Chain-of-Thought Distillation via Generation-Time Selection
Large reasoning models achieve strong performance on complex tasks through long chain-of-thought (CoT) trajectories, but directly transferring such reasoning processes to smaller models remains challenging. A key difficulty is that not all teacher-generated reasoning trajectories are suitable for student learning. Existing approaches typically rely on post-hoc filtering, selecting trajectories after full generation based on heuristic criteria. However, such methods cannot control the generation process itself and may still produce reasoning paths that lie outside the student's learning capacit — Chaoqun He, Yingfa Chen, Chaojun Xiao
