# OpenAssistant Conversations Dataset (OASST1)

## Dataset Description

- **Homepage:** https://www.open-assistant.io/
- **Repository:** https://github.com/LAION-AI/Open-Assistant
- **Paper:** TBA on April 17, 2023

### Dataset Summary

In an effort to democratize research on large-scale alignment, we release OpenAssistant 
Conversations (OASST1), a human-generated, human-annotated assistant-style conversation 
corpus consisting of 161,443 messages distributed across 66,497 conversation trees, in 
35 different languages, annotated with 461,292 quality ratings. The corpus is a product
of a worldwide crowd-sourcing effort involving over 13,500 volunteers.

### Dataset Structure

This dataset contains demonstrations of human-assistant conversations which were collected
on the open-assistant.io website until April, 12 2023.

Conversations are exported as message trees which contain conversation messages as nodes.
The root node of a message tree is called the initial prompt. Each message node can have 
multiple replies. Nodes with more than one reply can have a `rank` field indicating the 
order among the siblings sorted by user preference (the most preferred message has rank 0).
All messages have a role which can either be "assistant" or "prompter". The roles in 
conversation threads from prompt to leaf node in a message tree are stricly alternating 
between "assistant" and "prompter".

## Main Dataset Files

Data is provided either as nested as a message tree or as flat list (table) of messages.
Names of files containing message trees end in `.trees.jsonl.gz` while files containing 
a list of messages with a file name ending in `.messages.jsonl.gz`.
