Unlocking

Noun · AI & Machine Learning

Definitions

  1. The act of revealing or eliciting stronger model performance through better prompting, tooling, data, or workflow design rather than through a new underlying model. The term is often used informally in research and product iteration.

    In plain English: Bringing out capabilities the model already had but was not using well.

    Example: "Most of the improvement came from unlocking the model's existing capabilities with better retrieval and prompt structure."
