SPAR, Fact-Aware RL, and Rubric Evolution in AI Training
By
–
Key takeaways:
SPAR: align RL credit to where decisions happen — optimize stage-wise, not via one noisy end reward. Fact-Aware RL: verify atomic claims with retrieval → make hallucination measurable & optimizable
Rubric Evolution: auto-mine & patch adversarial reward hacks. -

JLM Deployment Sharing Across Multiple Training Jobs for GPU Optimization
By
–
2/5 The setup: JLMs are used only during the reward phase of Online RL, sitting idle the rest of each step. To avoid GPU waste, we shared JLM deployments across multiple training jobs. This improved utilization but exposed JLMs to unpredictable traffic bursts from multiple

1/5 Go Big or Go OOM: The Art of Scaling vLLM .
We doubled throughput and cut latency in half-same GPUs, just better vLLM config then added smart autoscaling to handle traffic bursts. Here's what we learned optimizing LLM-as-a-Judge for GRPO training. -

Boston Dynamics Atlas demonstrates rapid progress in embodied AI
