This blog post explains the process and necessity of fine-tuning large language models (LLMs) for specific tasks. It differentiates fine-tuning from Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG), stating that fine-tuning is best for altering model behavior or reasoning, while RAG is for incorporating external or frequently changing knowledge. The post details Supervised Fine-Tuning (SFT), which uses instruction-answer pairs to train models, and provides examples of data preparation for SFT, including generating synthetic datasets with other LLMs. AI
