Large Language Models (LLMs) are revolutionizing how we tackle data annotation, offering speed and efficiency that were previously unattainable. With Label Studio's Prompts, you can now handle multiple natural language processing (NLP) annotation types for a single data task in a unified Label Studio workflow.

Annotator Performance Dashboards make it easer to manage labeling teams at scale and orchestrate all the internal and external resources needed to improve data quality, without sacrificing speed.

While data annotation for LLMs may look and feel somewhat different than the data annotation of the past, it’s still a crucial step of the machine learning process.

Go through the entire fine-tuning process on OpenAI’s platform—from preparing recently-posted Wikipedia data to estimating costs and deploying your fine-tuned model.

In this post, we’ll guide you through the process of using Prompts in Label Studio Enterprise to pre-annotate data for Named Entity Recognition (NER) tasks.

Generalist models, like GLiNER, provide an excellent starting point for the tasks that they aim to solve. Fine-tuning these models offers us a way to improve their performance in the areas that we care about to solve business problems.

Different models are naturally going to excel at different tasks (just like humans). For users — especially those building products — having visibility into those tradeoffs is going to be a critical part of the decision-making process.

Sure, benchmarks are cool, but they don’t give you the feel or the intuition of how a model actually works. To get that, you’ve got to hack around with the model and throw real-world prompts at it — like you’d do in day-to-day tasks.
