This post does a fantastic job breaking down how you use an expert labeler (teacher LLM) to annotate your data, then use it to fine-tune a student LLM. It's as good or better than crowd workers!

In this case they use Mixtral to prep data for RoBERTa-base, then get equal performance in the end. So much faster! So much cheaper!

I love how absolutely bland the results are:

LLMs aren't perfect, but they're pretty good. Fine-tuned traditional models are also pretty good. Be careful when you're putting your data and prompts together. b Life is like that sometimes.
