Why Nobody Has Solved Continual Learning Oct 16, 2026 · 19:35 The continual learning loop is unsolved. We must balance SFT (knowledge injection) and RL (behavior optimization) by carefully tuning the SFT/Distillation to RL ratio for optimal model performance. Post-Training at the Frontier: How You.com, NVIDIA, and CoreWeave Improved Nemotron’s Agentic Search Oct 9, 2026 · 24:16 The key goal was within this three-week sprint being able to have a measurable lift in performance and accuracy on this benchmark using the Neotron model postrained with the core weave dedicated inference platforms and .com web search team. How to go from your agent's traces to a fine-tuned model in one workflow Sep 24, 2026 · 9:01 SmithTune provides a single, end-to-end workflow to convert agent traces into custom fine-tuned models. The process includes dataset creation, training (using providers like Fireworks or Baseten), and evaluation.
