What you'll walk away with

Know what fine-tuning really changes

How LLMs are trained, and why fine-tuning shapes tone and behavior, not knowledge.

Try the cheaper fix first

When a better prompt, examples or RAG solve the problem without retraining a model.

Decide with real numbers

The data, cost and upkeep fine-tuning needs, and how to check it actually helped.
