World Action Models (WAMs) generate actions together with predicted futures, offering a powerful interface for robot decision making. In contact-rich manipulation, however, visually plausible futures can be physically incomplete: insertion, assembly, search, and reorientation often depend on slip, jamming, contact normals, or small alignment errors that are weakly visible or hidden in RGB. A natural solution is to predict future tactile states, however, we identify tactile pollution, a failure mode where unconstrained tactile-token injection degrades video and action prediction by forcing a visual dynamics model to absorb sparse, local, event-driven contact signals. To address this, we propose Tactile-WAM, a touch-aware WAM with a Tactile Asymmetric Attention Mechanism (TAAM). TAAM combines a VideoClean mask, which blocks video-query access to tactile key/value tokens while preserving action-query access, with a touch-aware bias for action attention. The VideoClean mask protects visual prediction while keeping contact information available for action generation; the touch-aware bias is derived from predicted touch changes and modulates action attention to tactile tokens during denoising. On ManiFeel, Tactile-WAM improves the mean success rate by 38.9% overall and by 86% on contact-rich tasks.

Patients increasingly seek medication information online, yet safety knowledge for psychiatric drugs is split between regulatory adverse-event records, which are authoritative but abstract, and patient narratives, which are experience-near but unvalidated. Integrating them without conflating evidence and anecdote is especially consequential in psychiatry, where poorly contextualised information can amplify fear, nocebo responses, and non-adherence. Here we develop a provenance-aware, knowledge-graph-based multi-agent framework unifying 466,525 Reddit posts, 60,782 WebMD reviews, and twenty years of U.S. FDA Adverse Event Reporting System records for nine antidepressants. A large-language-model entity-recognition pipeline benchmarked against physician annotations reached highest F1 scores of 0.969 for medications and 0.973 for conditions. The two community platforms were far more concordant with each other (overlap up to a Jaccard similarity of 0.905) than with regulatory reports, indicating that patient-generated data form a partly independent safety signal. For sertraline, many adverse events appeared in community sources hundreds of days before the corresponding FDA date. A Neo4j knowledge graph grounded in ATC-N, ICD-10, and MedDRA vocabularies preserves provenance, keeping every claim traceable and regulatory facts distinct from patient experience. These results establish source-aware integration as a route to more auditable psychiatric medication information, with usefulness and patient benefit to be tested prospectively.
