Post-Training Is Highly Specialized Work
soumitrashukla9 · x · 2026-07-12
The repost suggests that certain capability improvements are more akin to highly specialized post-training, noting that this work requires:
- Domain experts to design high-quality example reasoning trajectories
- Corresponding evaluation systems
- More granular post-training pipelines
It emphasizes that capability gaps in many critical areas cannot be bridged simply through general training.
