A three-week engagement used near-policy SFT and SDPO to lift the model's quality by 20.7 points over the base and 8 points over the frontier competitor.
Standard instruction-following rewards cause models to collapse to short, empty answers; LIFT-Bench fixes this by scoring content alongside formatting constraints.
The 98% saving required combining a switch to DeepSeek V4 Flash with context compaction to fit oversized reviews within the model's deployment window.
AI21’s Forward-Deployed Researchers post-trained NVIDIA Nemotron 3.5 Super VL with three partners in three weeks, achieving frontier-level performance at a fraction of the cost.
AI21 analysis of internal traffic reveals public coding benchmarks overestimate task difficulty, leading to inefficient model routing.
AI21 argues that an agent's ability to verify its own outcome should determine whether resources are spent on verification or on diversity and aggregation.
AI21 eliminated 20 weekly manual interventions and reduced hero job starvation from 72 to 12 hours by implementing Kueue on a 10,000-GPU cluster.
Introducing an independent verifier improved the correct-answer selection rate for agentic search, surpassing the previous SOTA.
AI21 proposes a strategy that optimizes cost and speed for SWE agents by flexibly allocating compute resources according to task difficulty.
As AI agents' token usage surges, automated routing technology that optimizes costs without sacrificing quality is becoming critical.
