Plain explanation
Example
A general text model is fine-tuned on reviewed examples to classify a company’s support categories in a consistent format.Why it matters
Fine-tuning changes the model itself, unlike merely adding prompt context. Teams need data governance, before-and-after evaluation, versioning, and monitoring.Common misunderstanding

Defines fine-tuning and related adaptation methods; techniques, data needs and parameter updates differ across model families.
