Comparing Continued Pretraining to RAG (accuracy and performance)
This story is from 2026-09-11. It is preserved in the archive; the latest stories are on the live feed.
Mostly as a fun experiment I wanted to do a quick comparison of performance and accuracy between a CPT trained QWEN 3.5 4B model and a RAG implementation against the base model. The point of this exercise is mostly to measure the performance benefit of internalizing the knowledge vs doing reasoning…
