Building Datasets for LLM Fine-Tuning: SFT and DPO Explained

This article explains the creation of datasets for supervised fine-tuning (SFT) and Direct Preference Optimization (DPO) in large language models. It details how preference pairs are generated for DPO, including the concept of loss masking, and discusses the data requirements for fine-tuning, suggesting that less data is needed than commonly believed.
