Yeah lots of LLMs are trained on synthetic data these days, especially at the fine-tuning stage – but that's deliberate, the open question for me is still the impact of accidental synthetic data in the larger pre-training data pool

Smart data crawling strategy local iteration analysis

–
A dumb crawler doesn't necessarily mean that they're not doing something smarter with the content once it's been crawled – it's generally a good idea to crawl once and then iterate on analysis against your local copy

Iterative Fine-Tuning Impact on Pre-Training Data Contamination
By
–
How much does deliberately iterative fine-tuning on model outputs tell us about the impact of smaller amounts of generated data making it into larger pre-training datasets?

Artificial Data Risk at Pre-training Stage in Models
By
–
That seems like a slightly different aspect of this to me – we have seen tons of examples now of models being fine-tuned on carefully created artificial data, but to me that doesn't speak to the risk of unintentional artificial data affecting the models at the pre-training stage
