What are RLVR environments for LLMs? | Policy - Rollouts - Rubrics

🦋 check out prime intellect's envrionment hub to publish, explore and use RL environment: https://app.primeintellect.ai/dashboa... Reinforcement learning is becoming the defining ingredient behind the most capable AI agents. From OpenAI’s Deep Research to Anthropic’s Claude Code, RL is used to specialize models for reasoning, coding, and tool use. In this video we'll do a beginner friendly overview of Reinforcement Learning with Verifiable Rewards (RLVR) environment and how to build them using the verifiers library! 📌 also, if you are a beginner: learn to code from full-stack to AI with Scrimba https://scrimba.com/?via=yacineMahdid (extra 20% off pro with my link, great resource, I love the team) Table of Content 00:00 - Introduction: RL’s growing role in agentic AI 01:10 - The RLVR loop: dataset, policy, rollouts, rewards, updates 02:13 - Overview of the state of RLVR 03:50 - Small-model RLVR: performance, latency, and cost benefits 06:00 - RLVR vs RLHF: key conceptual differences 07:32 - Open-source frameworks: ReasoningGym, ART, TRL and Verifiers 08:12 - deep dive into the verifiers 7 steps with math-python env 08:25 - deep dive into the verifiers | step 1 : data 09:09 - deep dive into the verifiers | step 2 : interaction style 09:40 - deep dive into the verifiers | step 3 : environment logic 10:05 - deep dive into the verifiers | step 4 : rewards function (rubric) 11:23 - deep dive into the verifiers | step 5 : parser (optional) 11:46 - deep dive into the verifiers | step 6 : package environment 12:07 - deep dive into the verifiers | step 7 : run eval or training 12:30 - a few community environments 13:25 - Case study: Building a Vision-Language RLVR environment feat alexine 13:56 - vision SR1 - overview 16:46 - vision SR1 - environment 1 18:29 - vision SR1 - environment 2 20:03 - Interview with prime Will Brown, creator of Verifiers 20:18 - Interview with prime Will Brown - verifiers development story 23:16 - Interview with prime Will Brown - what's the vision for environment hub? 24:17 - Interview with prime Will Brown - what future is there for RL environment? 26:27 - 👺🦋👺🦋👺🦋 Shout Out 👺 big thanks for alexine for her envrionment and for hoping on the video, check her out folks: https://x.com/alexinexxx 👺 thanks will for taking the time to have come down from gpu heaven to chat with us about verifiers: https://x.com/willccbb Community Environment: 📌 MLE Bench Environment by C: https://app.primeintellect.ai/dashboa... 📌 Ifeval-confusables by oso: https://app.primeintellect.ai/dashboa... 📌 MAPP - Multi-Agent Path Planning Environment by salty duck: https://app.primeintellect.ai/dashboa... 📌 Vision SR1 by ma gurl alexine: https://app.primeintellect.ai/dashboa...
