@Syedbabar Ali The Azure OpenAI on your Data feature is built upon the Retrieval Augmented Generation pattern which essentially enhances the prompt sent to the underlying LLM model which can use the data provided in the prompt to respond with relevance and knowledge of your data.

But this is not training of the model itself, instead the data is indexed in a vector database (Azure Cognitive Search in the case of Azure OpenAI Service) and is searched for with the user prompt, results of which are sent in the prompt to the LLM used for generation.

Thank you @Pramod Valavala For a quick response, this implies that GPT does not possess self-learning mechanisms.

@Syedbabar Ali Yes. That is correct.

Note that you could however enhance the base prompt used in the call to the OpenAI API by implementing your own custom workflow that uses feedback from past interactions and using OpenAI itself to improve the base prompt. But this is just a custom extension and not something that is available out of the box.
