What the current evidence supports

Human editorial judgment · 2026-08-20

Adopt with guardrails

Why
Peer-reviewed (Nature), widely reproduced, and the de facto RLVR reasoning-training standard — but the documented length/difficulty biases mean it should never run in its naive form.
Next
Prototype GRPO on a small Qwen base via an established framework (verl/Tinker), apply the Dr. GRPO length-bias fix, and keep a cold-start SFT stage.
