Local Reinforcement Learning with Action-Conditioned Root Mean Squared Q-Functions

Local Reinforcement Learning with Action-Conditioned Root Mean Squared Q-Functions arXiv:2510.06649v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: The Forward-Forward (FF) Algorithm is a recently proposed learning procedure for neural networks that employs two forward passes instead of the traditional forward and backward passes used in backpropagation. Policy stories matter because compliance friction can slow adoption even when model quality keeps improving.

Show HN: ACE – A dynamic benchmark measuring the cost to break AI agents

Show HN: ACE – A dynamic benchmark measuring the cost to break AI agents We built Adversarial Cost to Exploit (ACE), a benchmark that measures the token expenditure an autonomous adversary must invest to breach an LLM agent. This matters because it changes how the market reads current momentum, execution quality, or adoption potential.
