Study Notes
Reinforcement Learning from Human Feedback (RLHF)
- RLHF uses human feedback to improve machine learning models' efficiency and alignment with human goals.
- Existing reward functions in reinforcement learning are enhanced by incorporating direct human feedback.
- Models' responses are compared to human responses, and humans assess the quality of model outputs.
- RLHF is crucial in Generative AI applications, especially Large Language Models (LLMs), significantly boosting performance.
- Example: Grading text translations—ensuring accuracy while maintaining a human-like quality.
Building an Internal Company Knowledge Chatbot with RLHF
- Data Collection: Requires a dataset of human-generated prompts and ideal responses, for example, "Where is the HR department in Boston?" and the corresponding human response.
- Supervised Fine-tuning: Existing language models are fine-tuned to understand specific internal company data for more accurate responses.
- Model Response Generation: The fine-tuned language model generates responses to the same prompts.
- Evaluation: Automated comparison of human and model-generated responses using metrics.
Reward Model Creation
- A separate AI model (reward model) is trained to assess the quality of model responses based on human preferences.
- Humans evaluate two different model responses to the same prompt, indicating their preference.
- The model learns to predict human preferences automatically.
- The reward model becomes a crucial tool for feedback mechanism for the initial language model.
Optimization via Reinforcement Learning
- The reward model is used as a reinforcement learning reward function, guiding the model's output towards desired preferences.
- The reinforcement learning step is completely automated, leveraging human feedback from the reward model.
RLHF Training Process (Diagrammed)
- Step 1: Supervised Fine-tuning: Basic Language Model (LLM) is fine-tuned using collected data to understand specific company data.
- Step 2: Reward Model Training: A separate model is trained to recognize preferred responses from humans comparing model outputs.
- Step 3: Reinforcement Learning: The base LLM is further optimized utilizing the reward model as the reward function, resulting in a more human-aligned response generation process.
- Outcome: Automated training process aligned with human preferences, leading to optimal model performance.
Key Takeaways
- Focus on the four critical steps: data collection, supervised fine-tuning, reward model development, and reinforcement learning optimization.
- A solid understanding of the core RLHF concept is essential for exam success.
