OdysseyArena: Benchmarking Large Language Models For Long-Horizon, Active and Inductive Interactions

arXiv:2602.05843v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: The rapid advancement of Large Language Models (LLMs) has catalyzed the development of autonomous agents capable of navigating complex environments. However, existing evaluations primarily adopt a deductive paradigm, where agents execute tasks based on explicitly provided rules and static goals, often within limited planning horizons. Crucially, this neglects the inductive necessity for agents to discover latent transition laws from experience autonomously, which is the cornerstone for enabling agentic foresight and sustaining strategic coher
The rapid advancement of LLMs necessitates more sophisticated benchmarking to push beyond static, deductive evaluations, aligning with the current focus on autonomous agents.
This development addresses a critical gap in evaluating autonomous AI agents, moving towards more realistic and complex interactions essential for their widespread adoption and impact.
The focus shifts from rule-based, static task execution to inductive learning and long-horizon strategic coherence in AI agent evaluation, redefining performance metrics.
