Ever wondered why your neural network seems to get stuck during training, or why it starts strong but fails to reach its full potential? The culprit might be your learning rate – arguably one of the most important hyperparameters in machine learning.
Fine-tuning a large language model (LLM) is the process of taking a pre-trained model — usually a vast one like GPT or Llama models, with millions to billions of weights — and continuing to train it, exposing it to new data so that the model weights (or typically parts of them) get updated.
A lot (if not nearly all) of the success and progress made by many generative AI models nowadays, especially large language models (LLMs), is due to the stunning capabilities of their underlying architecture: an advanced deep learning-based architectural model called the
As large language models have already become essential components of so many real-world applications, understanding how they reason and learn from prompts is critical.
