Runway Zero

Training Evidence

Same four LLMs. Same airport crises. Better behavior after RL.

Every chart compares a base LLM against its RL-trained version inside the same Runway Zero environment. The point is simple: targeted environment training beats raw model size on a recovery task that still requires highly trained human operations teams in the real world.

Submission Evidence

The same OpenEnv environment powers the Hugging Face Space, training notebooks, hosted GRPO artifacts, recovery-score plots, and visual crisis dashboard.
