"System" instructions and fine tuning in AI Studio?

I am using Google AI Studio for classroom workshop.

Is it possible to include a system instruction when fine tuning using AI studio?

Is that what “Description” means?

The interface allows importing prompts easy enough, but there seems to be no way to include a system instruction?

When using the fine tune model in AI studio, the usual system message entry area at the top of the prompt window does not appear.

Is it possible to include a system instruction along with prompt examples when fine tuning via Google AI Studio?

Hi @Nick, Welcome to the forum !

Currently, including a system instruction is not supported.
"Description " is the summary of why you are tuning the model, it won’t be included during tuning.
Only input/output pair supported while tuning.

Unfortunately, I don’t have enough information about your specific system error to help you troubleshoot it. To provide the best assistance, I’d need more details about the error, such as:

  • The exact error message: This will give me a better understanding of the nature of the problem.
  • The steps you were taking when the error occurred: This will help me identify the potential cause of the error.
  • Any other relevant information: This could include the model you were using, the version of AI Studio you’re on, or any other details that you think might be helpful.

Once I have more information, I can provide you with more specific troubleshooting steps or point you to resources that can help you resolve the issue.

Here are some resources that you may find helpful in the meantime:

I hope this helps!
