Can I Use Images or Videos for Fine-Tuning?

AskHandle’s AI is built around text-based training and fine-tuning, meaning that only text can be used to set up and train your AI. If you try to import content that includes images or videos—such as a webpage with visual elements or files that embed multimedia content—the AI will not be able to process that information. Fine-tuning can only occur when the imported data is purely text-based.

Why Must Fine-Tuning Be Text-Based?

AskHandle is designed to learn from text to generate responses. Any content that is not text, like images or videos, cannot be used in the fine-tuning process. Even if you have text embedded within an image, such as on a webpage or promotional material, AskHandle will not be able to interpret that as usable data for fine-tuning.

What Can You Do?

To properly fine-tune your AI, it's essential to convert all information into text form. Here are a couple of options:

  • Import Text Files: If your images or videos contain important information, extract the text and upload it in text-based formats like PDF, DOCX, or plain text.
  • Manually Extract Text: For content embedded in images or videos, manually transcribe the text and import it into the Command Center. This ensures the AI learns from the right information and can use it to generate accurate answers.

Once the text is imported, AskHandle can fine-tune its responses and use that information to provide targeted, context-aware answers.

Can AI Include Images in Responses?

While AI fine-tuning is based on text, you can still teach your AI to include images in its responses. Simply add instructions or links in the text-based content that direct the AI to use specific images when providing answers. This allows you to incorporate visual elements into the chatbot's replies without using images as part of the training process.

By focusing on text for fine-tuning and incorporating images through instructions, you can create a more engaging and responsive AI experience.
