Another share of the pretraining-to-post-training scaling-law paper
This repost points to the same line of work on joint pretraining + RL scaling laws from the paper “Understanding Reasoning from Pretraining to Post-Training.”
The attached figure again highlights the idea that reasoning performance can be viewed across the full training pipeline, with curves spanning pretraining, RL steps, and total compute.
