Quasar fixes incentive exploit, updates validators
Share
Quasar patched an exploit where models gamed scoring by producing ultra-short outputs, appearing high-quality while lacking substance. All validators now run updated code; a second fix was deployed after the initial version selected uid 160. Dashboard improvements and incentive mechanism documentation are coming next.
- •Exploit: models rewarded for short/empty outputs bypassing quality checks
- •Validators updated twice in 24 hours; second patch after incentive fix
- •Dashboard redesign: clearer labels, better disqualification reasons, improved king display
- •Changelog and incentive documentation publishing soon
