Agent World Model: Infinity Synthetic Environments for Agentic Reinforcement Learning

arXiv:2602.10090v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Recent advances in large language model (LLM) have empowered autonomous agents to perform multi-turn interactions with tools and environments. However, scaling such agent training is limited by the lack of diverse and reliable environments. In this paper, we propose Agent World Model (AWM), a fully synthetic environment generation pipeline. Using this pipeline, we scale to 1,000 environments covering everyday scenarios, in which agents can interact with rich toolsets and obtain high-quality observations. Notably, these environments are

Why this matters
Why now

Advances in large language models are enabling more sophisticated autonomous agents, but the bottleneck for scaling their training has become the lack of diverse and reliable environments, which this research directly addresses.

Why it’s important

The development of infinite synthetic environments removes a critical constraint on scaling agentic reinforcement learning, accelerating the progress and deployment of AI agents across various domains.

What changes

The ability to generate 1,000 diverse, high-quality synthetic environments for agent training overcomes a significant scaling limitation, making robust, general-purpose autonomous agents more feasible.
