Abstract: We present Seed1.8, a foundation model aimed at generalized real-world agency: going beyond single-turn prediction to multi-turn interaction, tool use, and multi-step execution. Seed1.8 keeps strong LLM and vision-language performance while supporting a unified agentic interface-search, code generation and execution, and GUI interaction. For deployment, it offers latency- and cost-aware inference, including configurable thinking modes and optimized visual encoding for images and video. We report evaluations on standard benchmarks and application-aligned workflows spanning foundational skills, multimodal understanding, and agentic behavior. Seed1.8 is released to support further research and development on interactive, real-world use cases.
Cognitive Alignment At No Cost: Inducing Human Attention Biases For Interpretable Vision Transformers
arXiv:2604.20027v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: For state-of-the-art image understanding, Vision Transformers (ViTs) have become the standard architecture but their processing diverges substantially from human attentional
