Kimi-Researcher End-to-End RL Training for Emerging Agentic Capabilities
During end-to-end reinforcement learning, we observed several notable emergent abilities in Kimi-Researcher. Here are two highlights:
- When presented with conflicting information from multiple sources, Kimi-Researcher resolves inconsistencies through iterative hypothesis refinement and self-correction.
Query
"Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio" is a collection of classical Chinese short stories written by the Qing Dynasty novelist Pu Songling. The earliest manuscript copies were already in circulation during the Kangxi reign of the Qing Dynasty, and the collection comprises over four hundred short stories in total. In Volume Ten of "Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio," there is a story titled "The Green-Clothed Girl." In this story, **how many sentences did the scholar Yu Jing speak with her?**
...Now I will use the search tool. ...Numbers [^5^] and [^6^] are **vernacular translations from Himalaya**...In addition, numbers [^16^] and [^17^] are **the original texts**, I need to cross-reference them again...The dialogue between Yu Jing and the woman in green may have different records in **different versions**... ...I counted carefully, and in the vernacular translation of number [^5^], Yu Jing seems to have said **six sentences**. But in the original texts of numbers [^16^], [^44^], [^48^], etc., counting them up, Yu Jing said **four sentences**...Well, according to my previous compilation, numbers [^68^], [^88^], [^89^], [^90^], etc. all provide the original text of "The Woman in Green"...So, Yu Jing said a total of four sentences. Previously, when I counted six sentences in the translation of number [^5^], it may be because the translation converted some narrative sentences into direct quotations... ...Considering that in classical Chinese, these direct quotations are explicit, while if the translation added some dialogue, it may have been embellishment done for ease of understanding... ...After careful verification, the words Yu Jing directly said in the original text are: 1. "Your voice is delicate and soft, if you were to sing a song, it would surely be soul-stirring." 2. "Why are you so deeply suspicious and fearful?" 3. "A stirring heart and wandering eyes are common occurrences, why do you say such things?" 4. "Yes." Therefore, Yu Jing spoke a total of four sentences in the story. **Previously, in the translation of number [^5^], I mistakenly took some narrative sentences as dialogue, leading to a miscount. After confirmation, the original classical Chinese text is authoritative and has been verified multiple times.** It seems that in "The Woman in Green," Yu Jing indeed said four sentences. I think I can answer this question now. Answer: **4** In "The Woman in Green" from Volume 10 of "Strange Tales from a Chinese Studio," the scholar Yu Jing spoke a total of **4** sentences.
- Kimi-Researcher demonstrates caution and rigor: even for seemingly straightforward questions, it deliberately performs additional searches and cross-validates information before answering.
A country located in South America, where the most popular sport is baseball, not football. Football is relatively less popular in this country, which has never qualified for the FIFA World Cup finals but has hosted the Copa América. In terms of football, the country has had a star player who once played in the Bundesliga. Who might that be?

It hosted the Copa América (2007). Football star **Juan Arango** once played for Borussia Mönchengladbach in the Bundesliga. To confirm whether Juan Arango is a Venezuelan football star who once played in the Bundesliga, I... ...To further confirm, I want to search for more information about Juan Arango to verify... ...I previously assumed it was Venezuela, but need further verification... ...To further confirm the accuracy of the information...need to re-verify. ...Additionally, I also need to search for other players who might fit, perhaps whether Venezuelan players like Caracas, Torres, Maldonado, etc. have ever played in the Bundesliga...covering information in both Chinese and English to improve the comprehensiveness of the search. ...According to the information from references [^62^] and [^66^]...this information all supports that **Juan Fernando Arango** is Venezuela's star player in football who once played in the Bundesliga. Combined with the previous search results... To obtain more official and authoritative information for further confirmation, I decided to call up the complete content of reference [^62^]...I now feel that I have collected enough information to answer this question completely.
