Streaming multimodal assistants must make response decisions while events are still unfolding. They need to recognize when the available evidence warrants a response, produce an appropriate continuation, and remain silent otherwise. Supervised fine-tuning learns from recorded assistant turns, but does not directly train on the response prefixes produced by the evolving policy itself. We introduce Live-OPSD, an on-policy self-distillation method that uses privileged hints available only during training to supervise the policy on its own outputs. The policy first generates a continuation from the streaming context alone. The same model then re-evaluates that continuation with a hint describing the relevant evidence, and the resulting distributions guide the unhinted policy. On Qwen3-Omni-30B-A3B, Live-OPSD attains an average score of 59.64 on LiveProBench, 5.26 points above the strongest continued-SFT baseline, and stays competitive on OVO-Bench (65.84). These results indicate that guiding the policy on its own outputs with privileged hints improves both when and how a streaming assistant responds.

Hallucination remains a critical bottleneck for large language models (LLMs), undermining their reliability in real-world applications, especially in Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) systems. While existing hallucination detection methods employ LLM-as-a-judge to verify LLM outputs against retrieved evidence, they suffer from inherent confirmation bias, where the verifier inadvertently reproduces the errors of the original generation. To address this, we introduce Multi-Agent Reinforced self-Check for Hallucination (MARCH), a framework that enforces rigorous factual alignment by leveraging deliberate information asymmetry. MARCH orchestrates a collaborative pipeline of three specialized agents: a Solver, a Proposer, and a Checker. The Solver generates an initial RAG response, which the Proposer decomposes into claim-level verifiable atomic propositions. Crucially, the Checker validates these propositions against retrieved evidence in isolation, deprived of the Solver’s original output. This well-crafted information asymmetry scheme breaks the cycle of self-confirmation bias. By training this pipeline with multi-agent reinforcement learning (MARL), we enable the agents to co-evolve and optimize factual adherence. Extensive experiments across hallucination benchmarks demonstrate that MARCH substantially reduces hallucination rates. Notably, an 8B-parameter LLM equipped with MARCH achieves performance competitive with powerful closed-source models. MARCH paves a scalable path for factual self-improvement of LLMs through co-evolution. The code is at https://github.com/Qwen-Applications/MARCH.
