Are we getting to the point where it's safe to gene-edit babies?

When a rogue researcher in China revealed in 2018 that he had used CRISPR to create three gene-edited children, his actions were almost universally condemned by biologists around the world. The main objection was not that gene-editing babies is wrong in itself, but that the CRISPR technique used was not safe and had a very high risk of causing harmful mutations. Now, a team in the US has used an improved form of CRISPR, known as base editing, to edit healthy embryos and shown that it can be...

TriAlign: Towards Universal Truth Consistency in Personalized LLM Alignment

arXiv:2606.01755v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Personalized large language models adapt responses to users' preferences and social attributes, but can introduce substantial universal truth inconsistencies across social groups, where some groups systematically receive less accurate responses on objective tasks. Existing alignment methods either ignore personalization or mainly focus on subjective preference alignment, largely overlooking fairness and consistency in universal truths. To...

What Should a Skill Remember? Quality-Cost Trade-offs in Cost-Aware Skill Rewriting for Language Model Agents

Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language model agents increasingly rely on skills: reusable procedural documents encoding workflows, tool use, implementation patterns, validation checks, and domain rules. Skill rewriting is often treated as prompt compression, but shorter skills can make agents more expensive by removing sparse operational anchors that prevent exploration, debugging, and recovery. We study skill rewriting through this economic lens.
