Definition
The programmatic creation of high-fidelity datasets using LLMs to simulate user queries, document segments, or gold-standard answers for RAG evaluation and fine-tuning. While it solves cold-start data problems and privacy concerns, trade-offs include the risk of model collapse and the propagation of systematic LLM biases.
High-fidelity AI training sets, not generic mock data for software UI testing.
