Reinforcement Learning Phase Critical for Model Performance
By
–
The reinforcement learning phase is critical for final performance. We discuss the algorithms we apply for this stage. We find that simple approaches often work best, and improve performance broadly.

Continued Pretraining Boosts Model Quality and Cuts Serving Costs
By
–
We were able to significantly improve the model quality and cost to serve. These quality improvements come from our first continued pretraining run, providing a far stronger base to scale our reinforcement learning.
