Fine-tunes an open‑source CLIP (ViT‑B/32) model (≈151M parameters) with synthetic labels generated by GPT‑4 Vision, using ~5k London street‑view image–text pairs (noting a small subset of ~400 images can already work). Training runs three epochs on a local M1 MacBook; top‑1 retrieval jumps from about 0.53 to 0.89 (MRR/top‑1), training accuracy ≈0.9. Practical outcome: a lightweight, self‑hosted multimodal search model that finds shops and bike parking much better and runs far cheaper than calling large closed models.
