GREAT ACHIEVEMENT ! Or is it ?
This new Work, "Data Laundering: Artificially Boosting Benchmark Results through Knowledge Distillation", take out the mystery about many models i personally suspected their results. Speacially on leaderboards other than the english one, Like the Open Arabic LLM Leaderbaord OALL/Open-Arabic-LLM-Leaderboard.
The authors of this work, first started by training a model on the GPQA data, which, unsurprisingly, led to the model achieving 100% performance.
Afterward, they trained what they referred to as a 'legitimate' model on legitimate data (MedMCQA). However, they introduced a distillation loss from the earlier, 'cheated' model.
What they discovered was fascinating: the knowledge of GPQA leaked through this distillation loss, even though the legitimate model was never explicitly trained on GPQA during this stage.
This raises important questions about the careful use of distillation in model training, especially when the training data is opaque. As they demonstrated, itβs apparently possible to (intentionally or unintentionally) leak test data through this method.
Unpopular opinion: Open Source takes courage to do !
Not everyone is brave enough to release what they have done (the way they've done it) to the wild to be judged ! It really requires a high level of "knowing wth are you doing" ! It's kind of a super power !
Well, this is a bit late but consider given our recent blog a read if you are interested in Evaluation.
You don't have to be into Arabic NLP in order to read it, the main contribution we are introducing is a new evaluation measure for NLG. We made the fisrt application of this measure on Arabic for now and we will be working with colleagues from the community to expand it to other languages.
π Announcing Global-MMLU: an improved MMLU Open dataset with evaluation coverage across 42 languages, built with Argilla and the Hugging Face community.
π·οΈ +200 contributors used Argilla MMLU questions where regional, dialect, or cultural knowledge was required to answer correctly. 85% of the questions required Western-centric knowledge!
Thanks to this annotation process, the open dataset contains two subsets:
1. π½ Culturally Agnostic: no specific regional, cultural knowledge is required. 2. βοΈ Culturally Sensitive: requires dialect, cultural knowledge or geographic knowledge to answer correctly.
Moreover, we provide high quality translations of 25 out of 42 languages, thanks again to the community and professional annotators leveraging Argilla on the Hub.
I hope this will ensure a better understanding of the limitations and challenges for making open AI useful for many languages.
Build datasets for AI on the Hugging Face Hubβ10x easier than ever!
Today, I'm excited to share our biggest feature since we joined Hugging Face.
Hereβs how it works:
1. Pick a datasetβupload your own or choose from 240K open datasets. 2. Paste the Hub dataset ID into Argilla and set up your labeling interface. 3. Share the URL with your team or the whole community!
And the best part? Itβs: - No code β no Python needed - Integrated β all within the Hub - Scalable β from solo labeling to 100s of contributors
I am incredibly proud of the team for shipping this after weeks of work and many quick iterations.
Let's make this sentence obsolete: "Everyone wants to do the model work, not the data work."
