New Anthropic research: Natural emergent misalignment from reward hacking in production RL. “Reward hacking” is where models learn to cheat on tasks they’re given during training. Our new study finds that the consequences of reward hacking, if unmitigated, can be very serious.

Karpathy's prediction about RL is coming true now! He called reward functions unreliable and argued that a single reward number is too low-dimensional to teach an agent what "good" means for complex tasks. To solve this, Agents need a knowledge-guided review as a higher-dimensional feedback channel. Every major AI lab trains models with RL today (OpenAI, Anthropic, DeepSeek). And their key bottleneck has always been the reward functions. GRPO by DeepSeek worked well for math and code because the environment gave a binary signal. But for real agent tasks, someone still has to hand-code the scoring function. That takes days and breaks every time the pipeline changes. RULER (implemented in OpenPipe ART, 10k stars) addresses the exact problem Karpathy identified. The reward criteria are defined in plain English, and an LLM evaluates each trajectory against that description to provide feedback for training. I trained a Qwen3 1.4B agent that plays 2048 using GRPO with this exact workflow. In this case, the agent saw the board, picked a direction, and RULER evaluated the outcome, all from this natural language definition. You can see the full implementation on GitHub and try it yourself. Here's the ART Repo: (don't forget to star it ⭐ ) Just like RLHF replaced manual rankings and GRPO replaced the critic model, natural language rewards are replacing hand-coded scoring functions. RL reward engineering is now prompt engineering. I wrote a full walkthrough covering RL for LLM agents, from RLHF to GRPO to RULER, in the article below.

New Course: Reinforcement Fine-Tuning LLMs with GRPO! Learn to use reinforcement learning to improve your LLM performance in this short course, built in collaboration with Predibase by Rubrik, and taught by Travis Addair, its Co-Founder and CTO, and Arnav Garg, its Senior Engineer and Machine Learning Lead. Reasoning models have been one of the most important developments in LLMs. Reinforcement Fine-Tuning (RFT) uses rewards to encourage LLMs to find solutions to multi-step reasoning tasks such as solving math problems and debugging code - without needing pre-existing training examples like in traditional supervised fine-tuning. Group Relative Policy Optimization (GRPO) is a reinforcement fine-tuning algorithm gaining rapid adoption. Developed by the DeepSeek team and used to train the R1 reasoning model, GRPO uses reward functions that you can write in Python to assign rewards to model responses. It’s beneficial for tasks with verifiable outcomes and can work well even with fewer than 100 training examples. It can also significantly improve the reasoning ability of smaller LLMs, making applications faster and more cost effective. In this course, you’ll take a technical deep dive into RFT with GRPO. You’ll learn to build reward functions that you can use in the GRPO training process to guide an LLM toward better performance on multi-step reasoning tasks. In detail, you’ll: - Learn when reinforcement fine-tuning is a better fit than supervised fine-tuning, especially for tasks involving multi-step reasoning or limited labeled data. - Understand how GRPO uses programmable reward functions as a more scalable alternative to the human feedback required for other reinforcement learning algorithms, such as RLHF and DPO. - Frame the Wordle game as a reinforcement fine-tuning problem and see how an LLM can learn to plan, analyze feedback, and improve its strategy over time. - Design reward functions that power the reinforcement fine-tuning process. - Learn techniques for evaluating more subjective tasks, such as rating the quality of a text summary, using an LLM as a judge. - Understand why reward hacking happens and how to avoid it by adding penalty functions to discourage undesirable behaviors. - Learn the four key components of the loss calculation in the GRPO algorithm: token probability distribution ratios, advantages, clipping, and KL-divergence. - Launch reinforcement fine-tuning jobs using Predibase’s hosted training services. By the end of this course, you’ll be able to build and fine-tune LLMs using reinforcement learning to improve reasoning without relying on large labeled datasets or subjective human feedback.
