I Tried Offline RL With Logs — Coverage Lied 7 Times
Training AI models using production logs can be misleading, as a recent exploration into offline Reinforcement Learning (RL) revealed. The study found that relying solely on logged data can result in models that appear to perform well but fail in real-world applications. This highlights the critical need for more robust evaluation metrics beyond simple reward signals to ensure model reliability. AI
