RL's GPT-3 Moment: The Rise of Replication Training

2025-07-13

This article predicts a forthcoming 'GPT-3 moment' for reinforcement learning (RL), involving massive-scale training across thousands of diverse environments to achieve strong few-shot, task-agnostic abilities. This requires unprecedented scale and diversity in training environments, potentially equivalent to tens of thousands of years of 'model-facing task time'. The authors propose a new paradigm, 'replication training,' where AIs duplicate existing software products or features to create large-scale, automatically scoreable training tasks. While challenges exist, this approach offers a clear path to scaling RL, potentially enabling AIs to complete entire software projects autonomously.

Can AI Fully Automate Software Engineering?

2025-05-30

This article explores the possibility of AI fully automating software engineering. Current AI excels at specific coding tasks, surpassing human engineers, but lacks reliability, long-context understanding, and general capabilities. The authors argue the key lies in learning algorithms being far less efficient than the human brain, and a scarcity of high-quality training data. Future breakthroughs will involve combining large-scale human data training with reinforcement learning, creating richer, more realistic reinforcement learning environments to enable AI to possess human-like online learning abilities. While AI will write most code, software engineering jobs won't disappear immediately; instead, the focus will shift to tasks harder to automate like planning, testing, and team coordination. Ultimately, full automation means AI can handle all human responsibilities on a computer—a goal potentially far more distant than simple code generation.
