aiLights - Model Customisation: How to Move LLMs from Generic to Genius
As major LLMs increasingly converge in output quality, customisation has become the main driver for sustainable performance advantages. But getting a custom LLM to truly deliver business value is far more complex than most tech influencers would have you think.
This session illustrates the process and tangible benefits of model customisation, using custom AI translation as our use case example.
What we’ll cover:
What model customisation really means – and why it’s not just fine-tuning
Why customised models massively outperform standard solutions in real-world scenarios
How to adapt off-the-shelf models to your business, specific tasks, or both for maximum impact
The steps and datasets required to achieve results that matter for your bottom line
Interactive Discussion:
Finally, we want to hear from you! Share your use cases, challenges, and experiences with past or current customisation projects.
