LLaMA Model Deployment and Local Testing

Description:
This project provides a comprehensive framework for working with machine-learning models, with a focus on deploying and testing local models and experimenting with advanced AI architectures like LLaMA. The project is split into two main notebooks, each addressing distinct tasks:

1. Local Model Deployment and Testing:
   The first notebook demonstrates how to set up and evaluate machine-learning models on a local machine. It includes:

   • Preprocessing datasets.
   • Configuring and training models.
   • Evaluating performance using standard metrics.

2. LLaMA-Based Project Implementation:
   The second notebook builds on the capabilities of the LLaMA architecture (or a similar model). It covers:

   • Fine-tuning pre-trained AI models.
   • Generating predictions or performing specific tasks (e.g., text generation, classification).
   • Utilizing advanced features for optimization and deployment.
