Health care digital transformation is gaining increasing attention, despite the observed challenges in its implementation. The envisioned benefits, together with the growing need for better health care, are motivating academia, organizations, regulatory agencies, and governments to develop more effective digital health care solutions. Through extensive debates among the authors, this paper discusses how digital transformation is being conducted in the health care sector. Our discussion relies on

What GAO Found The Department of the Treasury and the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) proposed 236 tax regulations and finalized 231 regulations between January 21, 2017, and March 31, 2026. These regulations included those that implemented provisions of the sweeping tax law changes of 2017, 2022, and 2025. IRS rulemaking procedures generally provided the public with an opportunity to comment on proposed tax regulations. GAO found that Treasury and IRS could improve the usefulness of regulatory e

Personal AI is moving beyond chat-only interaction toward continuous services that span phones, cars, homes, wearables, cameras, and tools. In this setting, memory cannot remain a cache of prior conversations. It should serve as a continuity and governance substrate: preserving durable user state, grounding answers in multimodal and device evidence, supporting correction and forgetting, bounding policy evolution, and remaining deployable under latency, cost, privacy, and edge-cloud constraints.

Asynchronous reinforcement learning improves throughput by decoupling rollout generation from optimization, but staleness is an inevitable byproduct compounded by policy lag, engine delays, and mixture-of-experts routing. From a trust-region perspective, this mismatch is critical: training-inference divergence governs approximation error in finite-horizon bounds, whereas PPO clipping only gates sampled outward updates, acting as a sampled surrogate rather than a full-policy constraint.

AI-native biotechnology companies are often designed by copying human biotech org charts into agent roles. We argue for a different abstraction: a Company World Model, defined as a persistent asset-to-value state representation with transition models, explicit value functions, planning, and updating across scientific, regulatory, BD, commercial, financial, and execution constraints. We introduce a dry-lab benchmark for testing whether AI-agent organizations should mimic departments or operate ar

arXiv:2607.16218v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Urban crime prevention is a persistent socio-technical challenge for municipalities, law enforcement agencies, and citizens. Traditional reporting and response processes often rely on delayed incident reports and reactive resource allocation, while community-level signals and ambiguous early-warning indicators may remain underused. This paper reframes an Urban Computing seminar project into a fuzzy logic-based framework for community-aware urban cr

arXiv:2607.16219v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Government websites contain a vast but underexploited body of textual evidence on foreign policy. This article develops a scalable approach for extracting structured information from policy texts and converting it into standardized event data, with policy event defined broadly as a statement or action. It proposes MDAF integrating an LLM workflow to automate foreign policy text identification, information extraction, and event classification. Empir

arXiv:2607.18170v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The integration of general-purpose artificial intelligence models into downstream AI systems, among other developments, has given rise to new forms of risk that are more systemic in nature than conventional AI risks. However, there is no generally accepted definition of systemic risks in general and for AI in particular. Conceptualisations of these risks vary across research and regulation. Especially the application of the systemic risk approach t

arXiv:2607.17149v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: AI agents increasingly act within the same clinical, political, scientific, and social systems that behavioral scientists study. Evaluating these systems requires source-level diagnosis: the same behavioral pattern may arise from an agent representational substrate or from the roles, objectives, interaction structures, and governance rules that shape its expression. This Perspective proposes a diagnostic framework for AI agent behavior: layer att
