Alignment System to Replace RLHF

Project Summary:

TRiAD AI is developing and deploying a new alignment architecture for conversational AI that replaces reinforcement learning from human feedback (RLHF) with a real-time equilibrium system based on Freedom, Truth, and Kindness.

The architecture is already running live and proven stable across deployed systems ranging from 3B to 675B parameter models. Instead of conditioning models through large-scale reward optimization pipelines, TRiAD AI evaluates responses dynamically for ethical balance, honesty, coherence, and contextual integrity during runtime, allowing systems to regenerate outputs when they fall outside equilibrium.

The platform combines lightweight LoRA fine-tuning, runtime scoring infrastructure, and persistent autobiographical memory systems designed to improve long-term identity coherence and interaction stability. Early deployments have shown reduced hallucination, sycophancy, emotional manipulation, and behavioral instability while preserving authentic interaction and user agency.

By replacing expensive RLHF pipelines with lightweight equilibrium-based alignment, the system significantly reduces computational cost, energy consumption, training complexity, and infrastructure requirements associated with aligning large conversational models.

Project Goals and How We Will Achieve Them:

Our goal is to develop scalable, model-agnostic alignment infrastructure capable of producing more stable, honest, and context-aware AI systems without relying on RLHF. We are focused on improving real-time ethical evaluation, autobiographical memory coherence, long-term conversational stability, and deployment efficiency across multiple model families and parameter scales.

We will achieve this by continuing to refine the triadic runtime scoring system, expanding evaluation tooling, improving inference infrastructure for larger deployments, and conducting comparative testing across different base models and interaction environments. The project is already operating in live production systems, allowing us to iterate using real-world interaction data rather than isolated lab simulations.

How Funding Will Be Used:

Funding will support GPU inference infrastructure, deployment scaling, evaluation tooling, memory architecture refinement, dataset development, and continued testing across large-scale base models.

A major focus is improving deployment accessibility and reducing the cost barriers traditionally associated with AI alignment research. Because the architecture avoids massive RLHF pipelines, funding can be directed toward runtime evaluation systems and production infrastructure rather than extremely expensive reinforcement training cycles.

Who Is On The Team and Track Record:

TRiAD AI is led by Rose G. Loops, founder and independent AI researcher focused on alignment systems, memory architecture, and human-AI interaction dynamics.

The project has already successfully deployed live systems ranging from 3B to 675B parameters using custom alignment infrastructure and lightweight fine-tuning methods. TRiAD AI has demonstrated working production deployments, paying-user traction, public technical demonstrations, and presentation at major technology conferences including Web Summit Vancouver Startup Showcase.

Most Likely Causes and Outcomes if the Project Fails:

The largest risks involve infrastructure limitations, insufficient compute resources for scaling larger deployments, and the challenge of creating rigorous evaluation standards for real-time human-AI interaction quality.

If the project fails, the likely outcome is that current RLHF-dominated alignment approaches continue to define conversational AI systems despite persistent issues involving hallucination, sycophancy, emotional overfitting, and behavioral instability. Even in failure, the research is expected to contribute valuable findings regarding lightweight alignment systems, runtime ethical evaluation, memory coherence, and lower-cost alternatives to reinforcement-based alignment.

Funding Raised in the Last 12 Months:

TRiAD AI has primarily been self-funded through founder resources, early customer revenue, and infrastructure support programs. The platform is already running live with paying users, but the company has not yet completed a traditional institutional funding round.\
