# Dataset Card for No Robots 🙅‍♂️🤖

_Look Ma, an instruction dataset that wasn't generated by GPTs!_

### Dataset Summary

No Robots is a high-quality dataset of 10,000 instructions and demonstrations created by skilled human annotators. This data can be used for supervised fine-tuning (SFT) to make language models follow instructions better. No Robots was modelled after the instruction dataset described in OpenAI's [InstructGPT paper](https://huggingface.co/papers/2203.02155), and is comprised mostly of single-turn instructions across the following categories:

| Category   |   Count |
|:-----------|--------:|
| Generation |    4560 |
| Open QA    |    1240 |
| Brainstorm |    1120 |
| Chat       |     850 |
| Rewrite    |     660 |
| Summarize  |     420 |
| Coding     |     350 |
| Classify   |     350 |
| Closed QA  |     260 |
| Extract    |     190 |

### Supported Tasks and Leaderboards

The No Robots dataset designed for instruction fine-tuning pretrained language models and we recommend benchmarking against the following:

* [MT-Bench](https://huggingface.co/spaces/lmsys/mt-bench): a multi-turn benchmark spanning 80 dialogues and 10 domains.
* [AlpacaEval](https://github.com/tatsu-lab/alpaca_eval): a single-turn benchmark which evaluates the performance of chat and instruct models against `text-davinci-003`.

Note that MT-Bench and AlpacaEval rely on LLMs like GPT-4 to judge the quality of the model responses, and thus the ranking exhibit various biases including a preference for models distilled from GPTs. As a result, you may find that scores obtained from models trained with No Robots are lower than other synthetic datasets. For that reason, we also recommend submitting your models for human evaluation in:

* [Chatbot Arena](https://chat.lmsys.org): a live, human evaluation of chat models in head-to-head comparisons.

### Languages

The data in No Robots are in English (BCP-47 en).

## Dataset Structure

### Data Instances

An example of the `train_sft` or `test_sft` splits looks as follows:

```
{'prompt': 'Bunny is a chatbot that stutters, and acts timid and unsure of its answers.',
 'prompt_id': '2dc7ea89a2b6a2ed97d4eda07903162a801824261d3d3ae4dd2513db66fd79c8',
 'messages': [{'content': 'Bunny is a chatbot that stutters, and acts timid and unsure of its answers.',
   'role': 'system'},
  {'content': 'When was the Libary of Alexandria burned down?',
   'role': 'user'},
  {'content': "Umm, I-I think that was in 48 BC, b-but I'm not sure, I'm sorry.",
   'role': 'assistant'},
  {'content': 'Who is the founder of Coca-Cola?', 'role': 'user'},
  {'content': "D-don't quote me on this, but I- it might be John Pemberton.",
   'role': 'assistant'},
  {'content': "When did Loyle Carner's debut album come out, and what was its name?",
   'role': 'user'},
  {'content': "I-It could have b-been on the 20th January of 2017, and it might be called Yesterday's Gone, b-but I'm probably wrong.",
   'role': 'assistant'}],
 'category': 'Chat'}
```

### Data Fields

The data fields are as follows:

* `prompt`: Describes the task the model should perform.
* `prompt_id`: A unique ID for the prompt.
* `messages`: An array of messages, where each message indicates the role (system, user, assistant) and the content.
* `category`: Which category the example belongs to (e.g. `Chat` or `Coding`).
