What is the relationship between SFT data quality and h...

High factual depth in SFT data is only safe when the model already possesses the underlying knowledge. If there is a capability gap, SFT teaches structural completion rather than knowledge retrieval. RLHF motivates a shift toward correctness-conditional signals. In PPO, rewards are only propagated for completions the model generates that are judged correct, which prevents the model from taking gradient steps on knowledge it does not actually possess.
