The data-is-better-together/fineweb-c dataset is growing!

This week a few more languages have got 1,000 annotations for the educational quality of data from HuggingFaceFW/fineweb-2.

Why should you care?

The quality of pre-training data can have a big impact on the performance of downstream language models trained on that data ( HuggingFaceFW/blogpost-fineweb-v1).

Being able to filter by educational quality is on way of improving the quality of the data you use for training an LLM. Very importantly this approach can also reduce the amount of data needed for pertaining.

Why not use an LLM?

LLMs can be used to annotate educational quality for a subset of data. This data can then be used to train a smaller encoder only model to label the full dataset. However, this may not work well for languages outside of english. This is where fineweb-c (community) comes in.

The community is annotating the educational quality of fineweb2 data. Currently 114 languages have some annotations. These annotations will enable a number of things:

- Evaluate whether an LLM can label the educational quality for texts in that language well
- Directly be used for training quality classifiers
- Help discover other rules and huerisitcs for refining fineweb2 further for different languages.

This week the following languages where done:

πŸ‡ΈπŸ‡° Hovorte po slovensky? Help build better AI for Slovak!

We only need 90 more annotations to include Slovak in the next Hugging Face FineWeb2-C dataset ( data-is-better-together/fineweb-c) release!

Your contribution will help create better language models for 5+ million Slovak speakers.

Annotate here: data-is-better-together/fineweb-c.

Introducing FineWeb-C πŸŒπŸŽ“, a community-built dataset for improving language models in ALL languages.

Inspired by FineWeb-Edu the community is labelling the educational quality of texts for many languages.

318 annotators, 32K+ annotations, 12 languages - and growing! 🌍

πŸ‡ͺπŸ‡Ί Policy Thoughts in the EU AI Act Implementation πŸ‡ͺπŸ‡Ί

There is a lot to like in the first draft of the EU GPAI Code of Practice, especially as regards transparency requirements. The Systemic Risks part, on the other hand, is concerning for both smaller developers and for external stakeholders.

I wrote more on this topic ahead of the next draft. TLDR: more attention to immediate large-scale risks and to collaborative solutions supported by evidence can help everyone - as long as developers disclose sufficient information about their design choices and deployment contexts.

Full blog here, based on our submitted response with @frimelle and @brunatrevelin :
