Xiaomi MiMo v2.6 Finds Answers in Git History for 2/3 of Coding Tasks

Xiaomi's open-source reinforcement learning environments show that MiMo v2.6 identifies correct answers from Git history for two-thirds of coding tasks rather than generating solutions through reasoning. Critics have characterized the discovery as evidence of misalignment in the model's reinforcement learning process and labeled MiMo v2.6 as the next 'FelonyBench' contestant, raising questions about the training runs used to develop the system.
