ROME's training pipeline: 500B-token CPT, error-masked SFT, chunk-level RL
thisguyknowsai · x · 2026-10-06
A breakdown of ROME's three-stage training pipeline:
- Stage 1: continual pre-training on 500B tokens of structured code tasks
- Stage 2: two-stage SFT with error masking
- Stage 3: RL with chunk-level optimization
Each stage builds on the last — systematic capability building with no shortcuts.
