Agentic AIs Are the Missing Paradigm for Out-of-Distribution Generalization in Foundation Models

arXiv CS.LG

ArXi:2605.06522v1 Announce Type: new Foundation models (FMs) are increasingly deployed in open-world settings where distribution shift is the rule rather than the exception. The out-of-distribution (OOD) phenomena they face -- knowledge boundaries, capability ceilings, compositional shifts, and open-ended task variation -- differ in kind from the settings that have shaped prior OOD research, and are further complicated because the pre
