Atropos Health’s Arjun Mukerji, PhD, Explains RWESummary: A Framework and Test for Choosing LLMs to Summarize Real-World Evidence (RWE) Studies
Large language models are increasingly used to turn complex study output into plain-English summaries. But how do we know which models are safest and most reliable for healthcare? In this most recent community AI research paper reading, Arjun Mukerji, PhD – Staff Data Scientist at Atropos Health – walks us through RWESummary, a new benchmark designed to evaluate LLMs on summarizing real-world evidence from structured study output — an important but often under-tested scenario compared to the typical “summarize this PDF” task.Learn more about AI observability and evaluation, join the Arize AI Slack community or get the latest on LinkedIn and X.

Small Language Models are the Future of Agentic AI
We had the privilege of hosting Peter Belcak – an AI Researcher working on the reliability and efficiency of agentic systems at NVIDIA – who walked us through his new paper making the rounds in AI circles titled “Small Language Models are the Future of Agentic AI.”The paper posits that small language models (SLMs) are sufficiently powerful, inherently more suitable, and necessarily more economical for many invocations in agentic systems, and are therefore the future of agentic AI. The authors’ argumentation is grounded in the current level of capabilities exhibited by SLMs, the common architectures of agentic systems, and the economy of LM deployment. The authors further argue that in situations where general-purpose conversational abilities are essential, heterogeneous agentic systems (i.e., agents invoking multiple different models) are the natural choice. They discuss the potential barriers for the adoption of SLMs in agentic systems and outline a general LLM-to-SLM agent conversion algorithm.Learn more about AI observability and evaluation, join the Arize AI Slack community or get the latest on LinkedIn and X.

Watermarking for LLMs and Image Models
In this AI research paper reading, we dive into "A Watermark for Large Language Models" with the paper's author John Kirchenbauer. This paper is a timely exploration of techniques for embedding invisible but detectable signals in AI-generated text. These watermarking strategies aim to help mitigate misuse of large language models by making machine-generated content distinguishable from human writing, without sacrificing text quality or requiring access to the model’s internals.Learn more about the A Watermark for Large Language Models paper.
