Data Labeling

Fact

The process of adding answers or categories to training data.

In Plain Words

Data labeling is like putting stickers on school lunch trays. Pizza gets a pizza sticker, not a mystery slime sticker.

It powers supervised training, tests, and fine-tuning. Bad labels teach the model the wrong lesson.
