Developer seeks feedback on fine-tuning LoRA for conversation state extraction in long LLM chats
A developer is working on a side project to improve AI conversation continuity by training a small model to extract structured conversation state from chat chunks, rather than relying on summarization. They are seeking feedback on their approach involving fine-tuning a LoRA, dataset design, and long-context systems.
