RLHF (Reinforcement Learning from Human Feedback)
A training technique that fine-tunes a model using human preference judgments.
In depth
A training technique that fine-tunes a model using human preference judgments. Humans rank model outputs from best to worst, and those rankings train a reward model. The language model is then optimized via reinforcement learning to produce outputs the reward model scores highly. RLHF is a key step in making raw pre-trained models helpful, harmless, and aligned with human intent.
Example
In practice, developers reach for RLHF (Reinforcement Learning from Human Feedback) when they need the capability described above as part of an AI feature or workflow.
