Abstract:

Capria’s lead GenAI developer Pranav Chellagurki joined our AI guru Vijay Mital, Microsoft’s Corporate VP of AI Architecture & Strategy, for a GenAI Network (GAIN) workshop. The session explored the technical intricacies of LLMs, fine-tuning, and how you can harness their power to address your business challenges. The workshop catered to both technical and non-technical founders / CxOs, offering a technically oriented discussion with examples for people to comprehend. He also introduced Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) and what it can do vs. fine-tuning, and vice versa.

    • Distinguishing between pre-training and fine-tuning
    • Exploring the reasons for fine-tuning, especially in the context of moving beyond auto-complete to create accurate Question and Answering systems
  1. The Mechanics of Model Fine Tuning:
    • A deeper dive into the technical aspects of fine-tuning
    • Practical insights into how to fine-tune a model
  1. Considerations for RAG and Fine Tuning:
    • A quick introduction to Retrieval Augmented Generation
    • Identifying scenarios where fine-tuning may not be advisable (RAG vs prompting vs Fine Tuning)
    • Understanding when and why you should opt for fine-tuning
