Merve Noyan says that when she generates tasks for RL environments herself, the task count stays small, and regenerating to improve them leads to an endless cycle.
She made the point in an X post on October 10, 2026, after watching PewDiePie's video on post-training with environments, and she argues that training needs a deadline. The report does not describe any specific environments, task counts, or results.
