2.3.4 Reinforcement Learning for all Scenarios

  1. What did DeepSeek-R1’s final RL stage add?
    Helpfulness and harmlessness alongside reasoning: rule-based rewards for math, code and logic, and reward models of human preferences for general prompts. Helpfulness was judged on the final summary only, harmlessness on the whole response including the reasoning.
