Date format for tine-tuning AI models

Unfortunately it didn’t work out. My fine-tuned model is still making up invalid dates. I’m beginning to think the issue lies elsewhere outside the scope of date formats. I’ll keep digging!
I should add that I have witnessed this issue across the board while fine-tuning several QwenX.X and LlamaX.X models using SFT. I have traced the tokenizing of the dates and displayed the trainer’s batch input-ids right before starting training. They matched the dates found in the dataset.
