Description

Describe the feature or improvement you're requesting

Hello everyone,

When using legacy fine-tuning, I find the OpenAI CLI extremely helpful due to its numerous tools. For instance, the Prepare Data Helper and the Create Fine-Tuning are particularly useful.

However, these tools only apply to legacy models, which consist of JSON with prompt and completion keys.

I propose the addition of operations to the existing CLI that can perform the same functions for the new chat fine-tuning.

My Proposal

  • For the sake of backwards compatibility, we could create a new subcommand called chat_fine_tunes.
    • This subcommand would inherit all operations that fine_tunes can perform, such as assisting with data preparation, etc. We can simply replicate the existing operations with minor modifications to suit the new format.

Additional context

I am open to working on this feature if it is approved.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate the existing fine tunes CLI subcommand implementation in the codebase. Understand how data preparation and model creation are handled. Propose a new chat fine tunes subcommand that mirrors the functionality with changes for chat format. Review the comments in the issue for any additional requirements.
