A new arXiv paper explores the transfer of learning between different domains in reinforcement learning (RL) for language models. The study, titled "Where and What to Reward? Understanding Generalization Between Verifiable and Open-Ended Domains in Reinforcement Learning," investigates how models trained on verifiable rewards (RLVR) and those trained on human feedback for open-ended conversations (RLHF) perform when their training data is varied. Researchers found that RLHF on open-ended prompts significantly boosts conversational abilities and also improves reasoning and coding tasks, while RLVR primarily enhances reasoning but shows limited gains in open-ended conversation.

IMPACT This research suggests that training language models on open-ended conversational data can lead to broader improvements across various tasks, potentially influencing future training methodologies for AI.
