GeoGuessr as an RL env: 4B VLM trained with OpenEnv and TRL to play the game
SergioPaniego · x · 2026-09-12
- Adithya S K built a GeoGuessr reinforcement learning environment on top of OpenEnv, turning the street-view geography game into a trainable task.
- A 4B-parameter VLM was trained with Hugging Face TRL to play GeoGuessr, demonstrating the "anything can be an RL env" approach.
- The project shows the open RL toolchain (OpenEnv + TRL) can cheaply convert arbitrary interactive scenarios into VLM training environments.
