Reinforcement-Learned Teachers (RLTs) ripped through LLM training bloat by swapping "solve everything from ground zero" with "lay it out in clear terms." Shockingly, a lean 7B model took down hefty beasts like DeepSeek R1. These RLTs flipped the script, letting smaller models school the big kahunas with finesse. Goodbye, brute-force; hello, clever structuring. They just redefined AI learning with a fresh standard.
