Theory of Mind 🧠 is a core part of social intelligence.

But most LLM benchmarks only test the final answer, not whether the model actually built the right mental model.

We introduce OmniToM, a benchmark for multi-actor mental state reasoning.

See which models resist bias the best, how prompt design changes outcomes, and why this matters for trustworthy decision making with AI. Explore the live rankings here:

Do large language models think like humans? Are they also prone to human-like cognitive biases?
We just launched a new ranking system of LLMs based on their ability to resist cognitive biases with a large-scale study of 2.8M+ responses across 8 well-known biases.

Our analysis spans from classical machine learning approaches to the latest in Large Language Models (LLMs) and multi-modal systems. We identify and highlight the importance of Theory of Mind (ToM) and multi-modality in building intelligent MPCAs.

We explore 3 themes of Multi-Party Conversational Agents (MCPAs):
- State of Mind Modeling: Understanding participant
mental states
- Semantic Understanding: Grasping the nuances of dialogue content
- Agent Action Modeling: Predicting future conversation flows

This paper investigates how LLMs can assist meta-reviewers by generating a controlled multi-perspective summary (MPS) of peer-reviewer opinions. Through qualitative study, we analyze how prompting LLMs with varying levels of detail can impact the quality of MPS.
