LoRA — Low-Rank Adaptation

Fact

A fine-tuning method using only a small set of new parameters.

In Plain Words

LoRA is like a clip-on cup holder for a bike. No bike surgery. Your latte gets a safer ride.

It lets teams teach a model new work tricks with less memory. You meet it in custom company models and local AI setups.
