Training an agent by trial and error, rewarding the actions that lead toward a goal so it learns which choices pay off.
Reinforcement Learning (RL) allows AI systems to learn complex behaviors through trial and error. It is the underlying mechanism for RLHF (Reinforcement Learning from Human Feedback), which aligns the raw outputs of Large Language Models with human values and enterprise safety constraints.
