ASK in the Dark: Uncertainty-Gated LLM Assistance under Partial Observability
Article summary
Quick briefing — cleaned from the original RSS feed
arXiv:2607.02686v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Reinforcement learning agents operating under partial observability must act on incomplete information, making them natural candidates for guidance from small language models (SLMs) that carry broad reasoning priors. Yet integrating SLM guidance into this setting has proven difficult: across all test environments, vanilla uncertainty-gated approaches achieve an overwrite rate at or near zero, meaning the SLM almost never contributes an independent…
