I'm not sufficiently familiar with the details on ML to assess the proposition made in the article.

From my understanding, RL is a tuning approach on LLMs, so the outcome is still the same kind of beast, albeit with a different parameter set.

So empirically, I actually thought that the lead companies would already be strongly focused on improving coding capabilities, since this is where LLMs are very effective, and where they have huge cashflows from token consumptions.

So, either the motivation isn't there, or they're already doing something like that, or they know it's not as effective as the approaches they already have.

I wonder which one it is.
