How far can $1k take you when training an agentic LLM from scratch?
An exploration of training an agentic LLM with just a $1000 budget using SWE-bench.
SWE-bench has been pivotal in the development of coding agents over the past three years. Researchers are exploring how far they can go with just a $1000 training budget. The study demonstrates that even low-cost training can yield significant success rates, with a $10 model achieving a 0.53% pass rate. This indicates the potential of targeted training strategies in achieving competitive performance.
