Show HN: Llama-8B Teaches Itself Baby Steps to Deep Research Using RL
https://github.com/dCaples/AutoDidact
I've been tinkering with getting Llama-8B to bootstrap its own research skills through self-play. The model generates questions about documents, searches for answers, and then learns from its own successes/failures through RL (hacked up Unsloth's GRPO code). Started with just 23% accuracy on Apollo 13 mission report questions and hit 53% after less than an hour of training. Everything runs...
