<p>Google Research has introduced Retrieve-for-Train (R4T), a framework for search that returns coherent, diverse result sets. It trains a fan-out language model with RL once, using groundedness, diversity, and alignment rewards. That model then synthesizes training data for a 53.9M-parameter diffusion retriever. The retriever generates all retrieval directions in a single pass, running 12× to 20× faster than autoregressive fan-out. No code or model weights have been released yet.</p> <p>The pos
