I feel like there&#x27;s potential to improve that part of just cutting a tunable amount (τ) of tokens off the tail end of those traces, because you may potentially lose valuable insight earlier in the trace? They did train the model (in SFT) to put the relevant information into the tail (τ) of the…</p><p><a href="https://hackerpaper.kaipfister.de/p/2510.06557/">Paper and discussion history</a>.
