Nvidia researchers boost LLMs reasoning skills by getting them to 'think' during pre-training

Researchers at Nvidia have developed a new technique that flips the script on how large language models (LLMs) learn to reason. The method, called reinforcement learning pre-training (RLP), integrates RL into the initial training phase rather than saving it for the end.This approach encourages the model to “think for itself before predicting what comes next, thus teaching an independent thinking behavior earlier in the pretraining,” the researchers state in their paper. By learning to reason on plain text without needing external verifiers, models trained with RLP show significant improvements in learning complex reasoning tasks downstream, hinting at a future of more capable and adaptable AI for real-world tasks.The typical LLM training cycleTypically, large language models are first [...]
