They cannot update their own parameters or behavior when they meet unfamiliar tasks, shifting knowledge, or changing interaction settings, and this becomes a serious limitation when agents work in open, interactive environments. This survey does not introduce new data… 2. **[Language Models as Science Tutors](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/chevalier-2024-language-models-science-tutors/)** *(2024 · 30 citations)* Most evaluations of scientific language models only check final answers to short problems. That says little about whether a model can help a student working through a long textbook chapter. To measure this, the authors built TutorEval: 834 questions written by 17 STEM researchers with teaching experience, tied to 202… 3. **[Are Large Language Models Reliable AI Scientists? Assessing Reverse-Engineering of Black-Box Systems](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/geng-2025-large-language-models-reliable/)** *(2025 · 4 citations)* The paper asks whether LLMs can act as dependable "AI scientists" by testing a basic research skill: inferring the hidden mechanism of a black-box system from its input–output behavior. ## All works 4 works of theirs in our library, the most cited first; 3 with a page here, the others link their original until we summarise them. 1.
