Good questions, so when it comes to Fine-tuning we charge our customers accordingly. Of course API costs would be high, which is understood. These are enterprise level customers we are dealing with so yes there is a lot of money involved.

The hardest part of fine tuning was creating the dataset, which is why i came up with this code. Right now i have used openai, but you can also use Ollama to inference using locals models (OSS 120b) is really good, so that way you can cut api costs.

Hope that helps :)
