Current long-term conversation benchmarks focus on recall. But this ignores key skills like recognizing what user information is valuable & leveraging it to improve future interactions. To address this gap, we present MultiSessionCollab to evaluate agents in a multi-session collaboration environment.

🖋️ Curious how writing differs across (research) cultures? 🚩 Tired of “cultural” evals that don't consult people? We engaged with researchers to identify & measure ✨cultural norms✨in scientific writing, and show that❗LLMs flatten them❗ 📜 arxiv.org/abs/2506.00784 1/11
