+# 🇺🇸 Youtube-Commons 🇺🇸
+
+**Youtube-Commons** is an corpus of audio transcripts from 1.3 million videos shared on Youtube under a CC-By license.
+
+
+
+## Content
+
+## Language
+
+The corpus is fully multilingual.
+
+## Uses
+The primary use of the collection is for cultural analytics on a wide scale. It has been instrumental for some major digital humanities projects like [Viral Texts](https://viraltexts.org/).
+
+The collection also aims to expand the availability of open works for the training of Large Language Models. The text can be used for model training and republished without restriction for reproducibility purposes.
+
+## License and ethical note
+All the transcripts are part of a video shared under a CC-By license. In accordance with the provision of the license, every Youtube channel is fully credited.
+
+While content under a free license can be lawfully reproduced in any setting, there is currently a debate over the legitimacy and proper ethical use of free content for pre-training large language models.
+
+In accordance with the philosophy of Creative Commons, we recommend that this set be preferablyb used for open models, especially ones with an integrated open approach (open data, open code, open weights), and strong guarantees of contributing back to the commons.
+
+## Future developments
+
+## Acknowledgements
+The corpus was stored and processed with the generous support of Scaleway. It was built up with the support and concerted efforts of the state start-up LANGU:IA (start-up d’Etat), supported by the French Ministry of Culture and DINUM, as part of the prefiguration of the service offering of the Alliance for Language technologies EDIC (ALT-EDIC).
+
+Corpus collection has been largely facilitated thanks to the open science LLM community insights and cooperation (Occiglot, Eleuther AI, Allen AI).
