Then, pick activities that fit within that parameter.

So they use parameter to mean a boundary, a characteristic, a component, an element, a feature, an ingredient, a part, a perimeter, a quality, or a requirement.

The new model lets users download and customise the parameters, or "weights", that determine how it computes to their own servers.

Although the model features 501 billion parameters, it only activates 23 billion parameters per query, giving users the advantage of a large, powerful model without the high computing costs.

Nor are they really complete theories, because they contain a number of parameters whose values cannot be predicted from the theory but have to be chosen to fit in with experiment.
