Overview

Without an evaluation set you cannot tell an improvement from a regression. Guardrails then enforce the limits your evaluation exposed.

In this lesson you will:

  • Build a small, honest evaluation set early
  • Score changes against it before shipping
  • Enforce boundaries the model must not cross

Pro Tip

Thirty real examples you curated beat a thousand you generated with the same model you are testing.
