A global team of leading scientists is zeroing in on a tiny but powerful molecule that could reshape how we age. Known as NAD⁺, it plays a crucial role in keeping our cells energized, repairing DNA, and maintaining overall health—but its levels steadily decline over time, potentially fueling diseases like Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s. Researchers are now exploring ways to boost NAD⁺ using compounds like NR and NMN, with early studies hinting at improvements in memory, metabolism, and physical function.

From pre- and self-diagnosis of symptoms to prescription drug treatments and ongoing care, millions of U.S. consumers have used AI chatbots for health and wellness according to the consumer health adoption survey from Rock Health. The report was published in late March 2026, with AI-focused data from the consumer survey fielded in December 2025.              In just one year from 2024 to 2025, consumers’ use of AI chatbots for health information doubled from 16% of people to 32%. The most popular brand of AI for health information seeking was ChatGPT (owned by OpenAI, with whom Microsoft is a major partner), used by 23% of seekers, followed by Gemini (from Google) for 15% of consumers using AI for health. Other vendors of chatbots for health garnered lower single-digits in share of users.            As we might anticipate, healthcare AI users tend to be digital health tech consumers for other devices and apps more than non-AI

arXiv:2603.20538v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Behavior cloning is a fundamental paradigm in machine learning, enabling policy learning from expert demonstrations across robotics, autonomous driving, and generative models. Autoregressive models like transformer have proven remarkably effective, from large language models (LLMs) to vision-language-action systems (VLAs). However, applying autoregressive models to continuous control requires discretizing actions through quantization, a practice widely adopted yet poorly understood theoretically. This paper provides theoretical foundations for this practice. We analyze how quantization error propagates along the horizon and interacts with statistical sample complexity. We show that behavior cloning with quantized actions and log-loss achieves optimal sample complexity, matching existing lower bounds, and incurs only polynomial horizon dependence on quantization error, provided the dynamics are stable and the policy satisfies a

arXiv:2603.22106v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Over time, the shared understanding that makes a software system safe to change quietly erodes. This gradual loss of understanding across a team increases cognitive debt, while the loss of captured rationale leads to intent debt. These may become more important, than technical debt in AI-assisted software development. This article proposes a triple debt model to reason about software health. It is built around three interacting debt types: technical debt in code, cognitive debt in people, and intent debt in externalized knowledge. Cognitive debt concerns what people understand; intent debt concerns what is explicitly captured for both people and machines to use in the future.

arXiv:2603.21656v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Protecting patient privacy remains a fundamental barrier to scaling machine learning across healthcare institutions, where centralizing sensitive data is often infeasible due to ethical, legal, and regulatory constraints. Federated learning offers a promising alternative by enabling privacy-preserving, multi-institutional training without sharing raw patient data; however, real-world deployments face severe challenges from data heterogeneity, site-specific biases, and class imbalance, which degrade predictive reliability and render existing uncertainty quantification methods ineffective. Here, we present TrustFed, a federated uncertainty quantification framework that provides distribution-free, finite-sample coverage guarantees under heterogeneous and imbalanced healthcare data, without requiring centralized access. TrustFed introduces a representation-aware client assignment mechanism that leverages internal model representations to

arXiv:2603.21460v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Patient education materials for solid-organ transplantation vary substantially across U.S. centers, yet no systematic method exists to quantify this heterogeneity at scale. We introduce a framework that grounds the same patient questions in different centers' handbooks using retrieval-augmented language models and compares the resulting answers using a five-label consistency taxonomy. Applied to 102 handbooks from 23 centers and 1,115 benchmark questions, the framework quantifies heterogeneity across four dimensions: question, topic, organ, and center. We find that 20.8% of non-absent pairwise comparisons exhibit clinically meaningful divergence, concentrated in condition monitoring and lifestyle topics. Coverage gaps are even more prominent: 96.2% of question-handbook pairs miss relevant content, with reproductive health at 95.1% absence. Center-level divergence profiles are stable and interpretable, where heterogeneity reflects

arXiv:2603.20815v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The pharmaceutical industry is facing challenges with quality management such as high costs of compliance, slow responses and disjointed knowledge. This paper presents GMPilot, a domain-specific AI agent that is designed to support FDA cGMP compliance. GMPilot is based on a curated knowledge base of regulations and historical inspection observations and uses Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) and Reasoning-Acting (ReAct) frameworks to provide real-time and traceable decision support to the quality professionals. In a simulated inspection scenario, GMPilot shows how it can improve the responsiveness and professionalism of quality professionals by providing structured knowledge retrieval and verifiable regulatory and case-based support. Although GMPilot lacks in the aspect of regulatory scope and model interpretability, it is a viable avenue of improving quality management decision-making in the pharmaceutical sector using intelligent

arXiv:2603.20441v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Verification-guided self-improvement has recently emerged as a promising approach to improving the accuracy of large language model (LLM) outputs. However, existing approaches face a trade-off between inference efficiency and accuracy: iterative verification-rectification is computationally expensive and prone to being trapped in faulty reasoning, while best-of-N selection requires extensive sampling without addressing internal model flaws. We propose a training-free regeneration paradigm that leverages an offline-curated contrastive Reflection Memory (RM) to provide corrective guidance, while regenerating from scratch helps break out of faulty reasoning. At inference time, the method performs RM-guided self-verification followed by a single RM-guided regeneration, avoiding both iterative correction and multi-sample selection. We evaluated our method on nine benchmarks that span algorithmic, reasoning, symbolic, and domain-specific tasks

arXiv:2603.20165v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: With the advancements in AI speech synthesis, it is easier than ever before to generate realistic audio in a target voice. One only needs a few seconds of reference audio from the target, quite literally putting words in the target person's mouth. This imposes a new set of forensics-related challenges on speech-based authentication systems, videoconferencing, and audio-visual broadcasting platforms, where we want to detect synthetic speech. At the same time, leveraging AI speech synthesis can enhance the different modes of communication through features such as low-bandwidth communication and audio enhancements - leading to ever-increasing legitimate use-cases of synthetic audio. In this case, we want to verify if the synthesized voice is actually spoken by the user. This will require a mechanism to verify whether a given synthetic audio is driven by an authorized identity, or not. We term this task audio avatar fingerprinting. As a step

arXiv:2603.19093v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Generative AI (GenAI) is increasingly being integrated into the online ecosystem, including online health communities (OHCs), where people with diverse health conditions exchange social support. For example, in OHCs, support providers are beginning to share content generated, directly or indirectly, by popular GenAI-based tools. OHCs are governed by norms that define appropriate behavior when providing support. Ways in which AI-generated support interacts with these norms remain underexplored. Inappropriate conformance or outright violation can erode seekers' trust, distort decision-making, and threaten community sustenance. In this work, we examine whether (and how) AI-generated support conforms to norms, using popular opioid-use recovery subreddits as our testbed. First, we provide an inventory of norms regulating text-based support provision in OHCs. Next, using human-validated LLM judges, we assess the prevalence of AI's conformity

arXiv:2603.18294v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Background: Clinical trials rely on transparent inclusion criteria to ensure generalizability. In contrast, benchmarks validating health-related large language models (LLMs) rarely characterize the "patient" or "query" populations they contain. Without defined composition, aggregate performance metrics may misrepresent model readiness for clinical use. Methods: We analyzed 18,707 consumer health queries across six public benchmarks using LLMs as automated coding instruments to apply a standardized 16-field taxonomy profiling context, topic, and intent. Results: We identified a structural "validity gap." While benchmarks have evolved from static retrieval to interactive dialogue, clinical composition remains misaligned with real-world needs. Although 42% of the corpus referenced objective data, this was polarized toward wellness-focused wearable signals (17.7%); complex diagnostic inputs remained rare, including laboratory values

arXiv:2603.18078v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We present the \textbf{Variational Phasor Circuit (VPC)}, a deterministic classical learning architecture operating on the continuous $S^1$ unit circle manifold. Inspired by variational quantum circuits, VPC replaces dense real-valued weight matrices with trainable phase shifts, local unitary mixing, and structured interference in the ambient complex space. This phase-native design provides a unified method for both binary and multi-class classification of spatially distributed signals. A single VPC block supports compact phase-based decision boundaries, while stacked VPC compositions extend the model to deeper circuits through inter-block pull-back normalization. Using synthetic brain-computer interface benchmarks, we show that VPC can decode difficult mental-state classification tasks with competitive accuracy and substantially fewer trainable parameters than standard Euclidean baselines. These results position unit-circle phase
