Fine-Tuning Necessity

Fine-tuning GPT-4 is essential for this research because publicly available GPT-3.5 lacks the specialized capabilities required for processing complex dynamic data and generating efficient navigation plans. Path planning involves highly domain-specific knowledge, intricate environmental interactions, and nuanced obstacle avoidance strategies that general-purpose models like GPT-3.5 cannot adequately address. Fine-tuning GPT-4 allows the model to learn from path planning datasets, adapt to the unique challenges of the domain, and provide more accurate and actionable insights. This level of customization is critical for advancing AI’s role in path planning and ensuring its practical utility in real-world driving scenarios.
