Correct take.

Hot take: DAgger (Ross 2011) should be the first paper you read to get into RL, instead of Sutton's book. Maybe also read scheduled sampling (Bengio 2015). And before RL, study supervised learning thoroughly.

In case you didn't know my recent work Single-stream Policy Optimizaton (SPO), a group-free low variance policy gradient algorithm. Check this blog out: zhongwenxu.notion.site/Single-stream-… and paper: arxiv.org/abs/2509.13232

To summarize my thoughts across tweets: Policy gradient algorithms form the foundation for optimizing reasoning and agentic LLMs, with the REINFORCE algorithm at their root. This is because maximizing expected return is achieved via the log-likelihood trick. Modern algorithms…

if modi withdrew indian troops from ukraine this war would be over.

White House trade adviser Peter Navarro sought to raise pressure on India to halt purchases of Russian energy after the US imposed crippling new tariffs on New Delhi, casting the conflict in Ukraine as “Modi’s war.” He speaks with @jmathieureports bloom.bg/45FF9tW



Modi finally nominates Trump for the Nobel peace prize for getting India and China closer to each other. "Thanks to Trump bhai, it's Hindh-Cheeni bhai bhai once again," Modi wrote in his nomination letter 😅

India is essential in helping the U.S. move its supply chains from China. While Pres Trump works to bring manufacturing home, India stands alone in its potential to manufacture at China-like scale for products that can't be quickly or efficiently produced here. My latest w/…

i haven’t read enough Puranic literature to be certain, but the fact that western indology ~discards the historical usefulness of this entire corpus feels wrong yes Purāṇas intersperse myth, but even Thucydides includes e.g. oracular prophecies in his History

The "NASA finds Sanskrit is the best language for programming" is a nonsense spread long enough diminishing the real greatness of Sanskrit. But I have a strong intiution that Sanskrit, with its Paninian grammar and rigor in Astadhyayi sutras, will be a great language for AI…

idk why people say that the VC theory doesn't explain deep learning it looks pretty clear to me that frontier labs managed to figure out generalization under pressure from their VCs

As AI models get commoditized, the value will be added in that final layer of orchestration. Not just routing to just one "best" model, but coordinating multiple models to combine strengths and create Chain of Debate.

New paper: Reflective Prompt Evolution Can Outperform GRPO. It's becoming clear that learning via natural-language reflection (aka prompt optimization) will long be a central learning paradigm for building AI systems. Great work by @LakshyAAAgrawal and team on GEPA and SIMBA.

How does prompt optimization compare to RL algos like GRPO? GRPO needs 1000s of rollouts, but humans can learn from a few trials—by reflecting on what worked & what didn't. Meet GEPA: a reflective prompt optimizer that can outperform GRPO by up to 20% with 35x fewer rollouts!🧵

There is little journalistic merit in tossing questions at Pakistani politicians about groups they neither control nor dare to name. These men and women are not decision-makers; they are fronts. Every interview with them seems scripted, evasive, and utterly pointless. If honesty…

What's India's potential? Well, Singapore previewed what China could look like. And Dubai may preview what India could look like. Because Indians are 38% of Dubai's population. While South Asians are >50%. And by working with Emiratis... They built a city that looks like this:
