Large language models (LLMs) can be said to have preferences: they reliably pick certain tasks and outputs over others, and preferences shaped by post-training and system prompts appear to shape much of their behaviour. But models can also…

The holy grail of LLM personalization is a single LLM for each user, perfectly aligned with that user's preferences. However, maintaining a separate LLM per user is impractical due to constraints on compute, memory, and system complexity.…
