StefanGliga: Spiky RLVR Capabilities Are About Information Asymmetry, Not Verifiability
kalomaze · x · 2026-09-12
StefanGliga pushes back on the intuition that 'spiky capabilities are a function of how verifiable a domain is'—the idea that domains unlike math/SWE won't fall to RLVR. He argues the general primitive is information asymmetry, which you can almost always manufacture, implying non-STEM domains are conquerable too. kalomaze countered that transfer currently remains weak.
