Building and fine-tuning large language models (LLMs) is a complex process that involves several key phases, including data preparation, embedding, pre-training, and fine-tuning. This lesson covers the entire lifecycle of LLM development, emphasizing the importance of security at each stage and the techniques used, such as tokenization and regression. Ideal for data scientists and AI engineers, it provides insights into the practical applications of libraries like PyTorch and the significance of fine-tuning for domain-specific knowledge.
