Introduction: Guiding LLMs Towards Truth

Welcome back, future LLM alignment expert! In our previous project, we explored fine-tuning an LLM for a specific style. Now, we’re tackling an even more critical challenge: factual accuracy. Large Language Models, despite their incredible capabilities, are notorious for “hallucinating” – generating plausible-sounding but incorrect information. This can severely limit their trustworthiness and utility in many real-world applications.

In this chapter, we’ll embark on a practical project using Tunix to align an LLM to be more factually accurate. We’ll learn how to leverage Tunix’s powerful post-training framework to reduce hallucinations and ensure our models provide reliable information. This project will reinforce your understanding of data preparation, reward modeling, and iterative alignment techniques.
