What is tuning?

Tuning, in a general technological sense, refers to the process of adjusting parameters or configurations of a system to optimize its performance for a specific purpose or environment. This can apply to a wide range of technologies, from engine tuning in vehicles (adjusting engine parameters for better fuel efficiency or power) to parameter tuning in machine learning models (adjusting learning rates, batch sizes, etc., to improve model accuracy) to radio frequency tuning (adjusting the frequency of a radio receiver to receive a specific signal). The specific methods and goals of tuning vary greatly depending on the technology in question.
