Continuing from the previous episode, we look at removing the LLM in favor of a Classification Model.

We'll also look at fine tuning the model so that we are able to get better classifications of the user input.

Our initial goal is to get the system working. After that, we'll focus on refactoring the code to improve its safety and maintainability.
