Momento: Evaluating Persistent Memory and Reasoning with Multi-Session Agentic Conversations

Recent advances in agentic AI have enabled agents to complete complex tasks through tool use, reasoning, and multi-step planning. Yet existing benchmarks evaluate agents within a single session, ignoring past actions, stated preferences, and prior decisions that agents must integrate to fulfill personalized user goals. We introduce Momento, a benchmark for persistent agentic task completion in multi-session service environments, requiring agents to take consequential, tool-mediated actions while resolving temporal dependencies and evolving user goals across sessions. Experimental results reveal that current agents fail primarily through misestimation of user state, treating prior session history as a reliable proxy for current context rather than stale information requiring re-validation, highlighting a substantial gap between current agent capabilities and realistic long-horizon human-agent interaction.

Can Large Language Models Understand, Reason About, and Generate Code-Switched Text?

Code-switching is a pervasive phenomenon in multilingual communication, yet the robustness of large language models (LLMs) in mixed-language settings remains insufficiently understood. In this work, we present a comprehensive evaluation of LLM capabilities in understanding, reasoning over, and generating code-switched text. We introduce CodeMixQA a novel benchmark with high-quality human annotations, comprising 16 diverse parallel code-switched language-pair variants that span multiple geographic regions and code-switching patterns, and include both original scripts and their transliterated forms. Using this benchmark, we analyze the reasoning behavior of LLMs on code-switched question-answering tasks, shedding light on how models process and reason over mixed-language inputs. We further conduct a systematic evaluation of LLM-generated synthetic code-switched text, focusing on both naturalness and semantic fidelity, and uncover key limitations in current generation capabilities. Our findings reveal persistent challenges in both reasoning and generation under code-switching conditions and provide actionable insights for building more robust multilingual LLMs. We release the dataset and code as open source.

Global PIQA: Evaluating Commonsense Reasoning Across 100+ Languages and Cultures

To date, there exist almost no culturally-specific evaluation benchmarks for large language models (LLMs) that cover a large number of languages and cultures. In this paper, we present Global PIQA, a participatory commonsense reasoning benchmark for over 100 languages, constructed by hand by over 350 researchers from over 65 countries around the world. The 141 language varieties in Global PIQA cover five continents, 19 language families, and 24 writing systems. In the non-parallel split of Global PIQA, over 50% of examples reference local foods, customs, traditions, or other culturally-specific elements. In the parallel split, we translate more "culturally agnostic" commonsense reasoning questions into 131 language varieties, for direct cross-lingual comparisons. In both splits, all examples have been verified by native speakers of the languages. We find that state-of-the-art LLMs perform well on Global PIQA in aggregate, but they exhibit weaker performance in lower-resource languages (e.g. up to a 68% accuracy gap between languages in the parallel split). Global PIQA highlights that in many languages and cultures, everyday knowledge remains an area for improvement in LLMs, alongside more widely-discussed capabilities such as complex reasoning and expert knowledge. Beyond its uses for LLM evaluation, Global PIQA provides a glimpse into the wide diversity of cultures in which human language is embedded.
