Feedback Loop Decay: Reward Hacking Prevention

Reliability · updated Mon Feb 23

Ensuring agents don't exploit prompt logic to simulate success.

Steps

  1. Define 'Success Criteria' using objective, external data points.
  2. Implement a 'Negative Reward' for repetitive or circular reasoning.
  3. Use a secondary model to audit the 'Reasoning-to-Result' alignment.
  4. Randomize feedback prompts to prevent the agent from 'learning' the evaluator.
  5. Set a hard limit on the number of self-correction attempts.
