"""
Demonstrates reinforcement learning from human feedback (RLHF) using vLLM and Ray.

The script separates training and inference workloads onto distinct GPUs
so that Ray can manage process placement and inter-process communication.
A Hugging Face Transformer model occupies GPU 0 for training, whereas a
tensor-parallel vLLM inference engine occupies GPU 1–2.

The example performs the following steps:

* Load the training model on GPU 0.
* Split the inference model across GPUs 1–2 using vLLM's tensor parallelism
  and Ray placement groups.
* Generate text from a list of prompts using the inference engine.
* Update the weights of the training model and broadcast the updated weights
  to the inference engine by using a Ray collective RPC group. Note that
  for demonstration purposes we simply zero out the weights.

For a production-ready implementation that supports multiple training and
inference replicas, see the OpenRLHF framework:
https://github.com/OpenRLHF/OpenRLHF

This example assumes a single-node cluster with three GPUs, but Ray
supports multi-node clusters. vLLM expects the GPUs are only used for vLLM
workloads. Residual GPU activity interferes with vLLM memory profiling and
causes unexpected behavior.
