Tuning Custom Models - Updated Model or New Model?

When I repeatedly fine tune a custom model, it appears that the Base Model is not “updated”, but a new model is created as the Output Model. Is this correct? So if I tune a custom model 5 times I will have six models in the system at that point?

And would I then need to delete the old custom models if I don’t want to proliferate unused intermediate models.

Thanks!

Can you elaborate on how you are approaching the fine-tuning of an already fine-tuned model?

You have the option to delete a fine-tuned model. More information available here: https://platform.openai.com/docs/api-reference/models/delete

Are you talking about custom GPT?

Yes, if you successively fine-tune a fine-tuned model, the original model isn’t affected. Instead a new fine-tuned model is created with the previously fine-tuned model as its base model.
