Title: Separable Pathways for Causal Reasoning: How Architectural Scaffolding Enables Hypothesis-Space Restructuring in LLM Agents

Abstract:
arXiv:2604.20039v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Causal discovery through experimentation and intervention is fundamental to robust problem solving. It requires not just updating beliefs within a fixed framework but revising the hypothesis space itself, a capacity current AI agents lack when evidence demands representations they have not previously constructed. We extend the blicket detector paradigm from developmental science to test this capacity in AI agents equipped with architectural scaffol
