Chain-of-Thought (CoT) prompting makes their reasoning visible, but it does not fix this weakness on knowledge-heavy tasks. The authors propose Verify-and-Edit (VE), a framework built on GPT-3 that repairs reasoning chains after they are generated, rather than only choosing… 2. **[Auto-Arena: Automating LLM Evaluations with Agent Peer Battles and Committee Discussions](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/zhao-2025-auto-arena-automating-llm-evaluations/)** *(2025 · 16 citations)* Keeping up with rapidly released LLMs requires evaluation that is both fast and trustworthy. Static benchmarks such as MMLU or MT-Bench risk contamination and handle open-ended output poorly. Crowdsourced platforms like Chatbot Arena are trusted but need many human votes, which makes them slow for new models and weak… 3. **[Can We Further Elicit Reasoning in LLMs?
