AI can solve Olympiad math… 🧮 
but still fails simple reasoning tasks 🤯 Today’s IC Colloquium by Nouha Dziri explores why and how we can build models that think more reliably 🤓.

And in this, what role does RL play? 👩‍🎓 In a world where models have seen almost everything, measuring real generalization is hard, so she tested reasoning across 3 levels:
→ applying a learned algorithm
→ combining multiple learned ones
→ inventing entirely new solutions

Studies show that RL sharpens learned skills and can enable real generalization, but only with the right setup: 🏆 strong verification, dense rewards, structured training, and challenging data.
