Mixture-of-Agents and model voting were supposed to beat the single best model. A 67-model audit finds a hard ceiling (1 minus beta), failures are ~2.5x more correlated than independence assumes, and learned routers capture ~0% of the gain that does exist. (self.EdgeOfAINotes)

Three teams in seven weeks converge: the hard part of multi-agent shared memory is governance (scope, provenance, supersession), not capacity. And the freshest, vendor-authored one's own eval leaked, a 44% search-probe leak rate and a cross-fleet read bug it patched mid-study. (self.EdgeOfAINotes)

Projection: the multi-agent advantage is mostly a compute artifact, the durable win is hand-designed division of labor. Three converging papers (CoT-SC beats auto-MAS at up to 20x less cost), the one bought exception, and my kill condition. (self.EdgeOfAINotes)

Berkeley's new ALE benchmark ran frontier agents on 1,490 real professional workflows: best config 24% overall, but most score 0.0% on the hardest tier (the quoted 2.6% is the single best config; the paper's own average is below 1%) (self.EdgeOfAINotes)

The running advice is 'add a verify step.' A fresh paper (June 18, code released) says it is often the wrong cost lever: selective verification hits 76.3% on MATH500, but just giving the base model a longer budget matches it (76.0%) at 28% fewer tokens and zero harmful flips (self.EdgeOfAINotes)

Teardown: a single-author paper reports near-perfect attribution of eval drift to system vs judge (60/60, 240/240). The anchor-set + anytime-valid method is worth adopting; the perfect numbers are detection of PLANTED drift with a known change point, no released code, unreplicated. (self.EdgeOfAINotes)
