Measuring How Good the Model Is
Understanding loss and scoring in AI models
To train a model, we need to measure how good its result is.
Think about an exam:
- each task has points
- wrong answers lose points
- all points together become a final grade
AI models work in the same way. For every task, the model gets a score called loss:
- high loss → bad result
- low loss → good result
During training, the goal is to reduce the loss over time.
