| Challenge: | Existing language modeling datasets contain near-duplicate examples and long repetitive substrings. |
| Approach: | They develop tools that allow us to deduplicate existing language modeling datasets . they found that over 1% of the unprompted output of language models is copied verbatim . |
| Outcome: | The proposed tools reduce train-test overlap, which affects over 4% of validation sets, and improve model accuracy. |
