Retrieval provides current input without retraining weights

An original document assistant can use retrieval to supply current policies at inference time. Fine-tuning is a separate development process with its own dataset and evaluation. Product memory or conversation storage is another separate capability.

Service data policies are a separate question

A provider may have data-use policies that allow submitted information to be retained or used later. That is a service-policy question, not a reason to assume every individual request immediately trains the model.

THE TAKEAWAY

What to remember

Read the service’s data-use policy.
