What is fine-tuning of an LLM?

  • AFurther training a pretrained model on custom data to adjust its weights
  • BWriting detailed prompts that steer a pretrained model at request time
  • CAttaching a document store so the model can look facts up at query time
  • DCompressing a pretrained model to lower precision for cheaper inference

Why this is the answer

Fine-tuning continues training and updates the model's weights on your examples. Prompting and RAG leave the weights untouched — they only change the input the model sees.
