Tell HN: Don't just call fine-tuning “training”

2 pointsby _9hey3 anni fa1 comments

It's easy to misunderstand claims of running LLMS locally, as if anyone can write the next ChatGPT on their laptop.

Even though fine tuning is a type of training, it is not the hard part, so one solution is to communicate more clearly and always call fine-tuning fine-tuning. There are a lot of new people wanting to get into the field, and having clarity in your claims will help us out.

Thanks

Well if the LLM is closed and proprietary, there is no insight into how training data is even used. It's just a black-box we have to use blindly and 'hope' the designers are using a blend of fine-tuning coupled with better training data.
