Glossary · Models and generation
Supervised fine-tuning
Fine-tuning on examples pairing inputs with desired outputs. It teaches demonstrated patterns and may fail when production requests differ materially from the examples.
Terms this definition uses
Models and generation
How a model produces text, what its training and decoding controls change, and what none of them can prove about a source.
