I see another area is getting the treatment. (I was there for dialogue systems being discovered (in the way America was discovered).)

Excited to present PLAYPEN, an environment for learning through dialogue game self-play. Are you interested in LLM post-training techniques and how to make them better "language users"? Read this thread! #GenAI #NLProc #HRI #AI #ML

We find that imitation learning through SFT improves performance on unseen games, but negatively impacts other skills, while interactive learning with GRPO shows balanced improvements without loss of skills.

"LLMs can play games" is a fashionable trend. As we demonstrate in our paper, training on a specific set of games yields higher performance on those games alone. However, this doesn't help models to play unseen games, showcasing their limitations in true instruction following! ↓
