Fine Tuning ChatGPT is a Waste of Your Time 

Very good explanation and excellent thinking however the problem is that context Windows or not normally big enough to take all the data. This is why fine tuning is an important part of the mix. The correct usage is a balance between long-term data going into fine tuning and short-term data going into RAG. There will soon be a type of job specifically around the sort of data architecture.

We had a well crafted GPT4 prompt with many tests covering our desired outputs. We took gpt35 and fine tuned it and now it's performing the same. Worked well for our use case!

Excellent description of the challenges in fine tuning AI models! You got yourself a new subscriber 🎉

Waow it's qualitative! You won another sub :) soon you ll be big, I can see that, continue to work hard

Relaying what works and what doesn't is highly valuable. Too few people share their experience. Thank You Training/Fine-tuning is a very delicate process, it has to be done really well to get really good results. Moreover it's not a well understood process - new discoveries are constantly being made, even at the highest levels of research.

I wonder how performance of RAGs will vary with integrating generative and retrieval processes. Seems like it would be difficult to optimise, plus more expensive computationally. Definitely the way forward though

5:22 When you started talking about the context window problem, I did think about indexing. I suppose an AI is a sort of an index but it is more dynamic than a traditional database. Setting up a session database would effectively solve the context issue.

I'm far from an expert, but I think at least part of the challenge is when people think fine-tuning is for giving the LLM more DATA; increasing it's knowledge base. That's not what fine tuning is for. It's for customizing the WAY it responds. It's more of a style guide than a knowledge store.

Nice video dude. What is that app you are using to visualize your message.

Currently I am planning and testing about a project which will rely heavily on RAG and I think I will have to also consider fine-tuning, becasue of the way I need the model to format, reference and present information from multiple documents. Still wrapping my head around how to produce the training data, but at the moment my impression is that, at least in my case study (a specialized and niche knowledge base about music and musical research), even RAG requires quite a bit of work to fragment the documents in ways that guarantee reliable retrieval.

I am very new to this AI field, thank you very much for explaining in simple terms !

Great Video! What is the whiteboard app that you are using?

why, why so tiny amount of subscribers. Very much needed approach to problems, to tell 'wait a minute... here are the stones on the road"

Good explanation. However it looks like these two techniques are not mutually exclusive, e.g. it could still be valuable to finetune a model to improve processing of RAG generations without any specific data, while RAG mechanism supplying all the data for each specific generation

Thank you for making this video. I remember I talked to my friends about a similar concept a few months ago, now I finally know I was not alone! RAG seems like the thing most AI services should have by default.

Thank you. Your clear explanation of RAG was very useful 👍

Loved this explanation. Subscribed.

I'm not an expert in AI topics, but I really do think the only thing we need is an AI that can just understand and it's just RAG on everything else. Great and insightful video!

Can the content for training be collected from ChatGPT-4? For example, after chatting with ChatGPT-4, can the desired content be filtered and integrated into ChatGPT-3.5 for fine-tuning? Is this approach feasible and effective? Are there any considerations to keep in mind?

I would like to get your advice for creating conversational chatbot. Do RAG or Finetune be suitable because we have a CourtLAW based dataset that contains 1000's of PDF which is unstructured dataset of paragraphs?

So, if I am correct, you suggest adding a value to the jason object, which is a chunk of data, sending with other set of data for fine-tuning the gpt model like questions and answers, am I right or does it require a different process?

Would that be different with the recently introduced custom-gpts which allow you to personalize your model based on your specific instructions and provide it with your own contextual documents for reference?

Training augments behaviour, RAG augments information - they are two different things.

Am I the only one here surprised to find out that Jack Black is an AI expert?

Solid work! Thanks!

thanks for the insight

Is it a waste of time for novelist too?

This video and opinion is fairly incorrect in regards to fine-tuning. Especially, fine-tuning can be utilized in any deep learning hyperparameters (i.e. GenAI, Discriminative AI, BERT, NLP) with any data set. Self supervision, supervised, to reinforcement learning just to name a few use cases of algorithms to solve a problem. RU-vids fine-tuning in their algorithm made me stumble upon this video. Highly recommended re-evaluation of this video to save folks from misunderstanding.

I would say you are actually looking for Embeddings. You can set up a database with Embeddings based on our specific data which will be checked for similarities. The matches would then be used to create the context for the completions api. Fine tuning is more to modify the way how it answers. This was my understanding.

Sorry but why then it's a waste of time? It wasn't clear or finally mention as far as I've listened
