Google 论文提出 Thinking-in-Bets,减少 Gemini 智能体的迎合式修改
Google 论文提出 Thinking-in-Bets,让 Gemini 智能体在看到用户反馈前记录主要主张、检查过程和置信度,以减少错误撤销已正确完成的工作。
New Google paper finds that Gemini AI agents are much less likely to undo correct work after a user wrongly says “that’s wrong” if they first write down what they checked and how sure they are.
When a user says "that's wrong, redo it", agents often rewrite code that already passed its tests. Telling them to stand firm backfires, because they then ignore real bugs.
Thinking-in-Bets has the agent privately note its main claims, the checks behind them, and its confidence before seeing the reply. When challenged, it re-checks only the disputed claims and asks which case failed if the complaint is vague.
In patch review across 5 Gemini models, agents wrongly gave up 12.2% of correct requirements after a bare complaint, against 0.02% with the checklist. On report reviews, writing the checklist after the complaint reached only a 65% pass rate, against 89% when written first.
Agents that take user feedback should log what they verified, and how sure they are, before reading the reply.
