arXiv:2605.20285v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We tackle the question of how to scale more efficiently across the many, ever-growing stages of current LLM training pipelines. Our guiding intuition stems from the fact that the dynamics of later stages of the pipeline, e.g. post-training, can be used to inform earlier stages such as pre-training. To this end, we propose Introspective Training (or IXT), inspired by offline reward-conditioned reinforcement learning and applicable to any stage of training. IXT uses a thinking reward model to annotate data with natural language critique based feedb
