## AI overview

TRL v1.0 presents a post-training library designed to remain useful as algorithms, models, and paradigms change. The article explains the evolution from PPO to DPO-style preference optimization and RLVR methods such as GRPO, emphasizing flexible abstractions and practical comparison over a supposedly permanent design.
