GLM5.2 PPO Paper Reveals Training Details
TheZachMueller · x · 2026-07-09
This repost highlights a new paper on the PPO algorithm used for GLM 5.2, with the author suggesting that the previous hype around PPO might be overestimated. The post also notes that this approach requires longer training steps, higher trainer memory, and training a value model before RL.
