OpenAI Fine-Tuning in Bath
Fine-tuning for Bath organisations, with the distinction that saves the most wasted effort: it teaches a model how to behave, not what to know. Fine-tuning to inject company knowledge is the commonest failed project in this space — retrieval does that job better, cheaper and with the ability to update when the facts change.
Why this comes up
The problem
The plan is to fine-tune the model on the company handbook so it can answer questions about internal policy.
What you get
What we deliver
- The objective tested against whether fine-tuning is the right mechanism at all
- Training examples built to demonstrate the behaviour, format or tone required
- Data quality prioritised over quantity, since a few hundred good examples beat thousands of poor ones
- A held-out evaluation set kept separate from anything used in training
- Base model comparison run first, to establish what tuning actually gained
- Retraining planned, because a tuned model does not follow the base model forward

OpenAI Fine-Tuning in Bath — common questions
- Why does fine-tuning not teach facts well?
- Because it adjusts behaviour rather than storing retrievable knowledge. A tuned model will produce output shaped like your documents while inventing details, and it cannot be updated when a policy changes without training again — which retrieval handles trivially.
- What is it genuinely good for?
- Consistent format, tone and task behaviour. Producing output in a specific structure, adopting a house style, or reliably performing a narrow classification are all cases where a tuned model outperforms prompting and costs less per request.
- How many examples do we need?
- Fewer than expected, and they must be good. A few hundred carefully constructed examples demonstrating exactly the behaviour you want typically beat thousands scraped together, because inconsistencies in the training data are learned along with everything else.
- What happens when a new base model arrives?
- Your tuned model stays where it is. The improvements in newer base models do not reach it, so the comparison worth rerunning periodically is your tuned model against a well-prompted current one — which sometimes ends the need for tuning entirely.
- Do you work with businesses across Somerset?
- Yes. We are based in Leicester, United Kingdom and work with clients throughout South West, including Bath and the surrounding Somerset area. Most collaboration happens remotely, and we travel for kick-offs and key milestones.
- What kind of Bath businesses do you usually work with?
- Visitor booking and ticketing for heritage operators, and brand work for independents competing on a very crowded high street. Beyond that we work across Tourism & Heritage, Higher Education, Professional Services, Retail and Software.
- Do you cover the areas around Bath?
- Yes — we work throughout South West, including Bristol, Salisbury, Gloucester. Bath is an urban area of roughly 95,000+, and we take on work across the wider Somerset region rather than the city boundary alone.
