New Paper Tests if RL Post-Training Learns New Strategies
SaxeLab · x · 2026-07-10
A new paper establishes an auditable testbed to determine whether RL post-training actually teaches models new things or merely amplifies existing skills from the base model. The authors claim their experiments captured RL generating new strategies rather than simply reinforcing existing capabilities.
