AI Model Training: Pre-training, Fine-tuning, and Continual Pre-training Explained

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

This article clarifies the distinctions between three key concepts in AI model development: pre-training, fine-tuning, and continual pre-training. Pre-training involves training a model on a large, general dataset to build foundational knowledge. Fine-tuning then adapts this pre-trained model to a specific task or dataset with a smaller amount of data. Continual pre-training is a process that updates a model with new data over time, allowing it to learn and adapt without forgetting previously acquired knowledge. AI
