What it does This repository is a curated data release for instruction tuning. It contains 52K English and 52K Chinese instruction-following examples generated by GPT-4 using Alpaca prompts, plus 9K answers to unnatural instructions and comparison rankings scored by GPT-4 across multiple models. The intended use is to bootstrap open-source LLMs like LLaMA with training material distilled from a stronger closed model.

The interesting bit The authors treat GPT-4 as both tutor and judge. Beyond generating answers, GPT-4 ranked responses from itself, GPT-3.5, and OPT-IML to create reward-model training data. Human evaluation via Amazon Mechanical Turk—using Anthropic’s helpfulness, honesty, and harmlessness criteria—found that a LLaMA model fine-tuned on this GPT-4 data performed substantially better than one trained on GPT-3 data and even matched GPT-4 itself across all three axes.

Key highlights

  • 52K English and 52K Chinese instruction-following datasets in standard Alpaca JSON format, with outputs generated by GPT-4.
  • comparison_data.json containing GPT-4 quality rankings of model pairs, useful for RLHF reward modeling.
  • Human evaluation results indicating LLaMA-GPT-4 closes the behavior gap with native GPT-4 on three safety-and-quality criteria.
  • An included IPython notebook to reproduce the paper’s figure plots from cached results.

Caveats

  • The data carries a CC BY-NC 4.0 license, meaning research-only, non-commercial use; models trained on it are expected to stay in the lab.
  • The repo is fundamentally a dataset and plotting utilities; training code and model weights are borrowed from external projects like Alpaca and Vicuna.

Verdict Worth downloading if you’re building or benchmarking instruction-tuned open models. Look elsewhere if you need a commercial-grade dataset or a one-click training pipeline.
