This paper investigates the problem of training-inference mismatch in reinforcement learning for large language models, where the training and inference processes can produce different results, leading to suboptimal training. A practitioner might care about this issue because it can lead to poor performance and instability in training, especially when using off-policy methods.

In general, LLM performance is incredibly multidimensional. There's no guarantee of a fixed ordering where the model that is best at math is also the model that's best at jokes. Despite that complexity, much of the variation in performance …

Katelyn Lesse and Angela Jiang join Latent Space to explain the engineering behind the Claude Platform: launching Opus 5.5, separating the model’s “brain” from the agent’s “hands,” scaling APIs, and building reliable managed agents. A new i…

This paper helps prevent large language models from becoming unsafe by identifying training data that causes them to behave badly, even if the data itself looks harmless. Practitioners can use this technique to build safer language models that are more reliable and trustworthy.

The GPT-6.1 Terra model is a fast and efficient text model for visual reasoning, precise computer use, and clear, natural writing, with a 1,050,000 context window and 128,000 max output tokens. Pricing is based on the number of tokens used, with text tokens costing $1.00 per million tokens and cached input tokens priced at 5% of the uncached input token rate. The model supports various endpoints, including Live, Chat Completions, Responses, Realtime, and Fine-tuning, with a maximum rate limit of 15,000 requests per minute (RPM) for the Grow tier.

OpenAI and Anthropic have cut their Large Language Model (LLM) prices by up to 80% in a few months, likely due to the commoditization of LLMs and increased competition from open-weight models and secondary inference providers. This trend is driven by the decreasing cost of using LLMs, which is correlated with improvements in model performance and the emergence of more efficient models. AI summary
