Characterizing PPO's Learning Process
A development team is using Proximal Policy Optimization (PPO) to fine-tune a large language model. Their process involves the model generating responses, receiving a score from a reward model for each response, and then immediately updating its own parameters based on this feedback before generating the next response. Explain why this iterative process classifies PPO as an 'online' reinforcement learning method.

Advantages of Online Reinforcement Learning for LLM Alignment
A team is refining a large language model's conversational abilities. Their training process involves the model generating responses to a continuous stream of new prompts. After each response, a separate reward model provides a quality score. The language model is then immediately updated based on this score before it handles the next prompt. Which statement best characterizes the fundamental nature of this learning approach?
