- made as poc

If you had one month to become a researcher in ML/LLMs
What would you do?

It is both a physical and mental toll

Unlike their international counterparts they require us to write/print lab files and codes and make you run here and there 10 times before they agree to sign your files

Anyways read up on some RPCs, RMIs and genetic algos

This is a very tidy little RL paper for reasoning. Their GRPO changes:
1 Two different clip hyperparams, so positive clipping can uplift more unexpected tokens
2 Dynamic sampling -- remove samples w flat reward in batch
3 Per token loss
4 Managing too long generations in loss
