Maximize Hugging Face training efficiency with QLoRA

In this video, I delve into optimizing the fine-tuning of a Google FLAN-T5 model for legal text summarization. The focus is on employing QLoRA for parameter-efficient fine-tuning: all it takes is a few extra lines of simple code in your existing script.
