[synthesis] How to rollback an AI model that has fine-tuned on user data

Decouple the base model version from the user-specific personalization layer. Roll back the base model while preserving the personalization state, or maintain backward-compatible personalization schemas.

Journey Context:
Traditional software rollbacks are trivial because state and logic are separated. In AI products with continuous learning, the 'logic' \(model weights\) is a function of the 'state' \(user interaction data\). Rolling back the model means throwing away personalization, resulting in a degraded experience worse than the bug. The synthesis: combining stateful architecture with rollback requirements reveals a paradox where reverting to a 'working' state actually creates a new failure mode \(loss of personalization\). The fix is a modular model stack where the foundation model is stateless and personalization is an overlay that can survive base model rollbacks.
