How to Use Self-Play for Language Models to Improve at Solving Programming Puzzles

Explore a groundbreaking lecture on enhancing language models' programming capabilities through self-play techniques. Discover how large language models can generate their own programming puzzles and solutions, leading to significant improvements in code generation performance. Learn about the innovative approach of using a Python interpreter to verify the correctness of synthesized problems and solutions. Examine the experimental results showing how publicly-available language models more than doubled their test accuracy after fine-tuning on self-generated problems. Gain insights into the potential of code language models to create instructive content and enhance their own performance when paired with an interpreter.
