Aggressive data curation may be harmful for frontier models that are significantly overtrained relative to Chinchilla optimality.

Shared subject first, then similar wording. They may agree or disagree.

• A verifiable task can be optimised by reinforcement learning until a neural network performs it extremely well. AKAndrej Karpathy17 Nov 2025reinforcement learning
• Anything precise enough to benchmark is also precise enough to optimize for, and modern RL training increasingly resembles the shape of the benchmarks themselves. SKSayash Kapoor16 Apr 2026reinforcement learning
• Capability does not generalise for free: a model that will move mountains on an agentic task still tells the same bad joke it told five years ago. AKAndrej Karpathy20 Mar 2026reinforcement learning
• Current models are unsafe because they are not smart enough, not because they are too smart. FCFrançois Chollet13 Sept 2026reinforcement learning
• Humans barely use reinforcement learning for intelligence — what RL they do use goes into motor tasks, not problem solving. AKAndrej Karpathy17 Oct 2025reinforcement learning
