AES reduces excess reasoning during post-training by penalizing high-entropy tokens only in the overlong suffix of correct responses, beyond the shortest correct response in a sampled group. It leaves earlier uncertainty and incorrect responses unchanged. On four mathematical benchmarks, mean pass@1 rises from 64.9% to 68.7%, while mean response length falls 52.9% versus the base model; this is an average, not a guarantee across tasks.
