Episode notes
Network Language Model
- Selector uses a Large Language Model (LLM) fine-tuned with network-specific data, creating a Network Language Model.
- This model understands networking concepts and your specific network data.
Model Foundation
- The LLM's base is a general language model (like LLaMA 3), providing English language understanding.
- This foundation is then augmented with network-specific data for domain expertise.
Fine-Tuning for Context
- LLMs learn networking concepts from internet data but lack specific network details.
- Fine-tuning with your data makes it like an 'open book' exam, providing context and reducing hallucinations.
