Inference-Time Alignment as an Alternative to Fine-Tuning
To circumvent the challenges associated with fine-tuning, such as high computational costs and training instability, an alternative approach is to align models during inference. This method avoids the additional complexity and resources required for retraining the model.

Inference-Time Alignment as an Alternative to Fine-Tuning
Diagnosing LLM Alignment Bottlenecks
A small research lab with limited computational resources and a fixed grant timeline plans to align its new language model. Their strategy involves an iterative fine-tuning process where the language model is repeatedly updated based on guidance from a complex, separately trained reward model. Which of the following represents the most significant risk this lab faces with their chosen strategy?

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?
