New framework generates 37,000 AI agent tasks for $0.05 each

Researchers have developed Recursive Synthetic Terminal Tasks (RST), a framework designed to generate long-horizon training data for terminal agents at a significantly reduced cost. This method recursively synthesizes new tasks from verified seeds, extending solutions, realigning verifiers, and validating in sandboxes, ultimately producing over 37,000 tasks for approximately $0.05 each. The synthesized tasks increase substantially in difficulty over recursive rounds, leading to performance drops in models like DeepSeek-V4-Pro. Fine-tuning with data generated by RST has shown notable improvements for Qwen3.5 models on various benchmarks, demonstrating the framework's utility for enhancing agent capabilities. AI

IMPACT This framework could significantly reduce the cost of creating training data for AI agents, potentially accelerating development and deployment.
