I evaluated my self-trained LLM what 31% accuracy actually means
The author evaluated their self-trained language model, achieving a 31% accuracy on a test set of 200 questions. This performance is better than random guessing but significantly lower than advanced models like GPT-4. The author emphasizes the importance of sharing honest evaluation results to provide transparency in AI projects.
- ▪The model achieved 31% accuracy, outperforming random guessing by 6 percentage points.
- ▪Compared to GPT-4, which scores around 90%, the author's model shows room for improvement.
- ▪The author suggests that using a larger base model and better knowledge sources could enhance performance.

They show a nice demo, pick cherry-picked examples, and call it done. I wanted to be honest, so I tested my model on 200 questions it had never seen. How I evaluated The test set has 1,273 questions that were never used in training.
