Models settle into narrow strategies, and reasoning gains level off. The authors ask whether token-level entropy, a classic exploration signal in RL, can identify exploratory reasoning. They analyse Qwen2.5-Base-7B on math problems and find that… 2. **[Instruction Pre-Training: Language Models are Supervised Multitask Learners](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/cheng-2024-instruction-pre-training-language-models/)** *(2024 · 59 citations)* Modern language models are usually pre-trained on raw text with next-token prediction, while supervised multitask learning is saved for post-training. ## All works 3 works of theirs in our library, the most cited first; 2 with a page here, the others link their original until we summarise them. 1.
