Looks like 100% AI (https://www.alphaxiv.org/abs/2609.01877) except for citations?


I’m very skeptical of these results. I run a pretty large group paper website on top of arXiv and we run pangram on papers. The numbers are not nearly this high.

One thing I see a lot is papers flagged as AI because they include llm rollouts in the paper as examples.


Neat optimization, I've never seen that before. Thanks for sharing.


Can we note that this is a 2024 paper in the title?


Pangram is legit. I don't work at pangram, we integrated it in our paper website and one of the cool emergent behaviors I've seen is that on AI papers with example rollouts, it will accurately mark the paper's main text as human generated and the rollouts as AI generated.

My understanding is that they strongly believe in no false positives, so it's definitely possible to slip something by them but if it marks something as AI, it very likely is.


> My understanding is that they strongly believe in no false positives

Who cares what they "believe" (or, more accurately, say they believe). What are the underlying processes that actually guarantee this, and what data supports it?


What is a rollout in this context?


> Pangram is legit.

Their 99.98% accuracy claim[1] makes me doubt that.

Rather obviously they're choosing the one that makes them look best. Another they link to¹ shows 98% for example.

Much more importantly, 9/10 dentists agree it's the best.

1: https://arxiv.org/pdf/2501.15654, linked from² https://www.pangram.com/blog/third-party-pangram-evals (the second section)

2: the third study they link there is based entirely around the assumption that Pangram is correct, and seems to have been a collaboration or something as they're included in the credits area.


What I really don't get is why more people don't talk about LMStudio, I switched to it months ago and it seems like a straight upgrade.


Isn’t LMStudio closed source?


How does LMStudio compare to Unsloth Studio?


Hosted on Parasail + Google (both for free, as of now) themselves, probably would give those a shot


I’m surprised that people are surprised. Qwen has been hosting private plus and max variants for a while now.


> In particular, Qwen3.5-Plus is the hosted version corresponding to Qwen3.5-397B-A17B with more production features, e.g., 1M context length by default, official built-in tools, and adaptive tool use. For more information, please refer to the User Guide.

So 3.5-plus has been released as open weights.


Well written piece on an attack vector I'd never thought too hard about before. Thanks for elaborating on why sending an email or two to a random person helps an attacker achieve their goal. A lot of similar articles skip over details like that.
