Fine-Grained Control

Noun · AI & Machine Learning

Definitions

  1. The ability to adjust an AI system's behavior in precise ways rather than through broad high-level settings alone. Fine-grained control matters when teams need to manage output format, tone, tool use, safety behavior, or model routing carefully.

    In plain English: Precise control over specific parts of an AI system's behavior.

    Example: "Enterprise customers wanted fine-grained control over which knowledge sources the assistant could cite and which tools it was allowed to call."
