Training

The process of teaching an AI model to perform tasks by exposing it to data.

Definition

Training is the process where a machine learning model learns patterns from data by adjusting its parameters to minimize prediction errors.

Training Process: 1. Forward Pass: Data flows through the model 2. Loss Calculation: Measure error between prediction and truth 3. Backward Pass: Calculate how to adjust parameters 4. Update: Modify parameters to reduce error 5. Repeat: Iterate over many examples (epochs)

  • **Key Concepts:**
  • Epochs: Complete passes through the training data
  • Batch Size: Number of examples processed together
  • Learning Rate: How much to adjust parameters each step
  • Loss Function: Measures prediction error

Examples

Training GPT-4 reportedly cost over $100 million in compute.
