Comparing LLM Alignment Strategies: Fine-Tuning vs. Inference-Time
Compare and contrast the strategy of aligning a language model's behavior by retraining it on new data (fine-tuning) with the strategy of applying alignment constraints only when the model is generating a response (at inference). In your analysis, discuss the key trade-offs between these two approaches, considering factors like computational requirements, development complexity, and operational stability.

LLM Alignment Strategy for a Resource-Constrained Organization
A technology startup has access to a powerful, pre-trained language model. However, they operate with a limited budget, which restricts their access to the large-scale computing clusters required for extensive model retraining. Their goal is to quickly deploy a chatbot that avoids generating harmful or biased content. Which of the following approaches is the most logical for them to adopt, and why?
