## Choose when

### Choose awesome-llms-fine-tuning if…

- Tags unique to awesome-llms-fine-tuning: ai, awesome-list, deep-learning, fine-tuning.
- Also covers Model Training.
- Need extensive guidance on LLM-specific fine-tuning strategies

### Choose llm-attacks if…

- Tags unique to llm-attacks: alignment-testing, attacks, fastchat-dependency, language-models.
- Also covers Evaluation & Observability.
- When you need to test the robustness of aligned language models specifically using attacks designed for these systems,

## When NOT to use awesome-llms-fine-tuning

- Looking for real-time interactive support or direct code implementation help
- Favor more specialized tools for immediate performance optimization over broad learning

## When NOT to use llm-attacks

- Do not use if you are evaluating generic or unaligned language models without a need for alignment-specific attack testing,
- Avoid when FastChat is not used in your project as llm-attacks explicitly depends on it.
