A new study from Hugging Face explores how control over rewards during language model training impacts future learning capabilities. Researchers found that models given control over their own rewards, as opposed to those yoked to another model's rewards, demonstrated significantly faster learning on new tasks. This effect persisted even when the models were identical in their initial weights and received the same overall training updates, suggesting that the "control" itself, rather than the absence of damage from lacking it, is the key factor in enhanced plasticity.
