A developer details a personal experiment fine-tuning the Qwen3.5 model on an RTX 3090, aiming to transform it into a candidate scorer for tasks like sentiment analysis or ticket routing. The experiment revealed that while accuracy improved, the model's mean negative log likelihood worsened, indicating a potential issue with the training data labels not aligning with the task's intent. This hands-on account emphasizes the importance of examining multiple metrics beyond simple accuracy and carefully scrutinizing training data for effective model development. AI
