Parts 1 and 2 of this series covered the data going into a model. This time we look at the technical choices made while training and optimizing it — decisions that introduce their own, separate set of security trade-offs. ...
So far this series has covered the data going into a model and the technical choices made while training it. Now: what happens when your organization doesn’t build a model at all, but fine-tunes someone else’s. ...
The first four parts of this series covered where AI training data comes from, what gets permanently baked into a model, how training and optimization choices introduce risk, and how fine-tuning inherits all of it. This part covers a harder problem: you often can’t check any of it yourself. ...
This series started with a simple idea: every AI model is a direct product of its training data, and most organizations deploying AI have no real visibility into what that data actually was. Over five parts, we traced that problem from raw data collection all the way through to the documentation that’s supposed to make it transparent. ...
