The AI community’s effort has led to the development of many high-quality open-source LLMs, including but not limited to Open LLaMA, StableLM, and Pythia. You can fine-tune these models on a custom instruction dataset to adapt to your specific task, such as training a chatbot to answer financial questions.

Lightning AI recently launched Lit-Parrot, the second LLM implementation in the Lit-* series. The goal of these Lit-* series is to provide the AI/ML community with a clean, solid, and optimized implementation of large language models with pretraining and fine-tuning support using LoRA and Adapter.

We will guide you through the process step by step, from installation to model download and data preparation to fine-tuning. If you have already completed a step or are confident about it, feel free to skip it.

The Lit-Parrot repository is available in the Lightning AI Github organization here. To get started, clone the repository and install its dependencies.
