Study Buddy AI (Lite)

A fine-tuned version of Microsoft's Phi-2, trained to act as a casual, emotionally intelligent study assistant that helps users learn deeply through conversation. Designed for real-time interaction inside a lightweight web app.

Model Details

Model Description

Study Buddy AI Lite is built on microsoft/phi-2 and fine-tuned using PEFT (Parameter-Efficient Fine-Tuning). It was trained to behave like a study partner — casual, kind, encouraging, and deeply helpful for academic subjects and personal growth.

Explains complex topics using simple language
Emotionally intelligent responses — supportive and motivational
Great for studying, reviewing, or breaking down hard concepts

Use Cases

Personal tutoring via chat
Homework help and study review
Emotional motivation during learning sessions
Supplementing lessons with a relatable assistant

Limitations

May hallucinate and respond as user which you can cut out in frontend files
Best used in short back-and-forths, not long essays

Base model: microsoft/phi-2
Fine-tuning method: LoRA via the peft library
Custom dataset: 3,000+ curated prompts focused on simplified teaching, emotional tone, and helpful behavior
