Which statement accurately reflects the differences between these approaches in terms of the number of...

Comprehensive and Detailed In-Depth Explanation:

Fine-tuning typically involves updating all parameters of an LLM using labeled, task-specific data to adapt it to a specific task, which is computationally expensive. Parameter Efficient Fine-Tuning (PEFT), such as methods like LoRA (Low-Rank Adaptation), updates only a small subset of parameters (often newly added ones) while still using labeled, task-specific data, making it more efficient. Option C correctly captures this distinction. Option A is wrong because continuous pretraining uses unlabeled data and isn’t task-specific. Option B is incorrect as PEFT and Soft Prompting don’t modify all parameters, and Soft Prompting typically uses labeled examples indirectly. Option D is inaccurate because continuous pretraining modifies parameters, while SoftPrompting doesn’t.
