Hi there, I'm an amateur AI enthusiast. I've managed to gather a fairly large dataset of .pdfs of varying quality. I have about 10gb total. I want to use it to fine tune a model and/or a RAG system. I've been having a terrible time trying to get the data prepared so I can train with it. I've tried google collab, I've tried Kaggle and paid for GPUs on both, but I'm struggling. This is because I'm not a data scientist and have zero background in programming, etc. I'm just using AI to teach me along the way. I'm willing to pay some money for GPU power, but because I fail so frequently I fear I'm just burning through it. I don't have enough horsepower on my laptop - I've tried to train on it, but to no avail. I've had minor successes, but have not been able to complete the dataset with anything comprehensible. Any and all suggestions are welcome. I need some serious help. Thanks!!
