Introduction to LLM Instruction Fine-tuning | Loading Dataset | Alpaca Prompt format

In this lecture, we start learning about instruction fine-tuning.

We download the dataset of instructions and then convert it into Alpaca prompt format.

This is a lecture explained through detailed whiteboard notes and live coding.

0:00 What is instruction fine-tuning?
3:28 Instruction fine-tuning examples
8:35 Steps for instruction fine-tuning
9:06 Preparing and loading the dataset
13:11 Converting instructions into Alpaca prompt format
22:04 Splitting dataset into train-test-validation

Vizuara philosophy:

As we learn AI/ML/DL the material, we will share thoughts on what is actually useful in industry and what has become irrelevant. We will also share a lot of information on which subject contains open areas of research. Interested students can also start their research journey there.

Students who are confused or stuck in their ML journey, maybe courses and offline videos are not inspiring enough. What might inspire you is if you see someone else learning and implementing machine learning from scratch.

No cost. No hidden charges. Pure old school teaching and learning.
