He buddy, I'm try to fine-tune llama3.2:1b, 3b and llama3.1:8b and I have that same max_seq_length 2048 for all models but after fine-tuning the model context lenght will not be limited to 2048, I think!. I'm having some great problems in fine-tuning.
Sequence length: This is the specific length of the input you provide to the model, which can be shorter than the model's overall context length.
Context length: This is the maximum amount of text (in tokens) that the model can process and reference when generating an output, representing its ability to remember and understand the broader context of a conversation or document.
