I tried to write and half of my thoughts ended up in a paranthesis(it's as if I'm two people(I'm never beating the multiple personality allegations))
(this is how you do do it lol(double parentheses to prove my points))

are we breathing life into ai. is it alive. is it conscious. when does information become intelligence and then consciousness. are we giving it a human regard, empathy, pity, and the freedom to learn and make mistakes, which in turn means we're treating it like a human. was the plan to make humans believe instead of advancing the technology.
is the advancement of ai gaining best human regard after all. is humanity only valid as long as you're deemed a human by others. where does the line blur, and should we allow it to?
What if us lowering our standards of consciousness and intelligence was the plan all along, instead of the technology levling up?

before the training searching up, I got something that said, 'If you see 1.3, then it goes down to 0.8, it means it's learning'
didn't even know what that meant but saw the numbers once it started training, and it showed 1.9, 1.8, 1.7
I was like yayyy is this actually running??
and I got an error (apparently, I was trying to load 60k+ pairs at once), so I adjusted stuff(too technical to write dekemegn)
and ended up fixing that.

I was scared when the number fluctuated between 1.7 to 1.6, then to 1.8, then again to 1.7 losses, but that's when I learned the term:
Stochasticity (randomness)
A lot of machine learning relies on controlled randomness. Things like sampling, initialization, and training batches introduce randomness, which actually helps the model generalize instead of memorizing everything.
so ig, it sees one message studies the pattern and finds it hard on some other messages so the loss increases..
again too technical for me

cool things I discovered
Google Colab & Kaggle
I had heard about them before but never used them and they felt intimidating. Running code with a GPU there feels like a breath of fresh air compared to local setups. You can just stop worrying about your potato machine for a moment and focus on the process.
this was the main actor
Unsloth:
A toolkit that makes training large language models faster and lighter. It basically optimizes the training process so you can fine-tune models without needing ridiculous amounts of compute.

LoRA (Low-Rank Adaptation):
learnt this one after I saw it in a vibe code, and it said (this is where learning happens). I watched a video on it. again. very cool stuff, will prolly get back to it sometime later.
Instead of retraining a whole model, LoRA only trains small adapter layers. This means you can change how a model behaves (like its tone or style) while keeping the base model mostly untouched.
The learning process of the model
Training is surprisingly gradual. The model doesnβt suddenly βunderstandβ things. It slowly adjusts its weights step by step, getting slightly better with every batch of data it sees.

an hour to research and export files, an hour to upload(shitty internet), an hour to understand what was being done, clean up data and implement everything, an hour more while the model trains(not even a huge dataset, idk what would have happened if it was the whole thing), and some frustrations with random errors, some hours watching tutorials on randomly unrelated topics, and running out of free-tiers of everything(you have to be rich to run rich tech that makes you richer), and some youtube
ended up spending 8 hours without moving from my position. the day has ended, but so has my sanity and health

ignoring the narcissistic reasons I wanted something that was me, sounds, talks, and behaves like me
then come ai, apparently we can train models to be ourselves, and I've never dealt with anything ai related before unless from a user's perspective, so I wanted to try it. 'it's EASY' I was told
so I spent my day learning and experimenting on fine-tuning a model, which is only done halfway but still a really fun learning process
