“We're actually able to take advantage of large inference deployments where people are serving tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands of users, and then use that production data to go and improve the models”

“We're actually able to bias the model based off of the direct user feedback using some of these like online training methodologies. We're able to see like real upticks in user satisfaction, completion rates, decreased tool call failures”

“We put a ton of time into not just model architecture, but also the data pipelines around it, how we eval the product, and having a really good RL loop around post-training and mid-training the model”

“You need more pre-training data… give the model a bunch of data and think… transform this data… pre-trained on it would make the model smarter”
