[**Anthropic Helpfulness and Harmlessness Dataset (HH-RLHF)**](https://huggingface.co/datasets/Anthropic/hh-rlhf) 
- In total 170k human preference comparisons, including human preference data collected for [Training a Helpful and Harmless Assistant with Reinforcement Learning from Human Feedback](https://arxiv.org/pdf/2204.05862.pdf) and human-generated red teaming data from [Red Teaming Language Models to Reduce Harms](https://arxiv.org/abs/2209.07858), divided into 3 sub-datasets:
    - A **base** dataset using a context-distilled 52B model, with 44k helpfulness comparisons and 42k red-teaming (harmlessness) comparisons.
    - A **RS** dataset of 52k helpfulness comparisons and 2k red-teaming comparisons using rejection sampling models, where rejection sampling used a preference model trained on the base dataset.
