3C3H AraGen Leaderboard welcomes today deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-V3 and 12 other models (including the late gpt-3.5 💀) to the ranking of best LLMs in Arabic !


Observations:
- DeepSeek-v3 ranked 3rd and only Open model among the top 5 !

- A 14B open model ( Qwen/Qwen2.5-14B-Instruct) outperforms gpt-3.5-turbo-0125 (from last year). This shows how much we came in advancing and supporting Arabic presence within the LLM ecosystem !

- Contrary to what observed in likelihood-acc leaderboards (like OALL/Open-Arabic-LLM-Leaderboard) further finetuned models like maldv/Qwentile2.5-32B-Instruct actually decreased the performance compared to the original model Qwen/Qwen2.5-32B-Instruct.
It's worth to note that the decrease is statiscally insignificant which imply that at best, the out-domain finetuning do not really hurts the model original capabilities acquired during pretraining.
Previous work addressed this (finetuning VS pretraining) but more investigation in this regard is required (any PhDs here ? This could be your question ...)

~75% on the challenging GPQA with only 40M parameters 🔥🥳

GREAT ACHIEVEMENT ! Or is it ?

This new Work, "Data Laundering: Artificially Boosting Benchmark Results through Knowledge Distillation", take out the mystery about many models i personally suspected their results. Speacially on leaderboards other than the english one, Like the Open Arabic LLM Leaderbaord OALL/Open-Arabic-LLM-Leaderboard.

The authors of this work, first started by training a model on the GPQA data, which, unsurprisingly, led to the model achieving 100% performance.

Afterward, they trained what they referred to as a 'legitimate' model on legitimate data (MedMCQA). However, they introduced a distillation loss from the earlier, 'cheated' model.

What they discovered was fascinating: the knowledge of GPQA leaked through this distillation loss, even though the legitimate model was never explicitly trained on GPQA during this stage.

This raises important questions about the careful use of distillation in model training, especially when the training data is opaque. As they demonstrated, it’s apparently possible to (intentionally or unintentionally) leak test data through this method.

Unpopular opinion: Open Source takes courage to do !

Not everyone is brave enough to release what they have done (the way they've done it) to the wild to be judged !
It really requires a high level of "knowing wth are you doing" ! It's kind of a super power !

Cheers to the heroes here who see this!

Apparently i forgot to put this here !

Well, this is a bit late but consider given our recent blog a read if you are interested in Evaluation.

You don't have to be into Arabic NLP in order to read it, the main contribution we are introducing is a new evaluation measure for NLG. We made the fisrt application of this measure on Arabic for now and we will be working with colleagues from the community to expand it to other languages.

🌐 Announcing Global-MMLU: an improved MMLU Open dataset with evaluation coverage across 42 languages, built with Argilla and the Hugging Face community.

Global-MMLU is the result of months of work with the goal of advancing Multilingual LLM evaluation. It's been an amazing open science effort with collaborators from Cohere For AI, Mila - Quebec Artificial Intelligence Institute, EPFL, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, AI Singapore, National University of Singapore, KAIST, Instituto Superior Técnico, Carnegie Mellon University, CONICET, and University of Buenos Aires.

🏷️ +200 contributors used Argilla MMLU questions where regional, dialect, or cultural knowledge was required to answer correctly. 85% of the questions required Western-centric knowledge!

Thanks to this annotation process, the open dataset contains two subsets:

1. 🗽 Culturally Agnostic: no specific regional, cultural knowledge is required.
2. ⚖️ Culturally Sensitive: requires dialect, cultural knowledge or geographic knowledge to answer correctly.

Moreover, we provide high quality translations of 25 out of 42 languages, thanks again to the community and professional annotators leveraging Argilla on the Hub.

I hope this will ensure a better understanding of the limitations and challenges for making open AI useful for many languages.

Dataset: CohereForAI/Global-MMLU

Build datasets for AI on the Hugging Face Hub—10x easier than ever!

Today, I'm excited to share our biggest feature since we joined Hugging Face.

Here’s how it works:

1. Pick a dataset—upload your own or choose from 240K open datasets.
2. Paste the Hub dataset ID into Argilla and set up your labeling interface.
3. Share the URL with your team or the whole community!

And the best part? It’s:
- No code – no Python needed
- Integrated – all within the Hub
- Scalable – from solo labeling to 100s of contributors

I am incredibly proud of the team for shipping this after weeks of work and many quick iterations.

Let's make this sentence obsolete: "Everyone wants to do the model work, not the data work."


Read, share, and like the HF blog post:

I feel like this incredible resource hasn't gotten the attention it deserves in the community!

@clefourrier and generally the HuggingFace evaluation team put together a fantastic guidebook covering a lot about 𝗘𝗩𝗔𝗟𝗨𝗔𝗧𝗜𝗢𝗡 from basics to advanced tips.

link : https://github.com/huggingface/evaluation-guidebook

I haven’t finished it yet, but i'am enjoying every piece of it so far. Huge thanks @clefourrier and the team for this invaluable resource !

Why nobdoy is talking about the new training corpus released by MBZUAI today.

TxT360 is +15 Trillion tokens corpus outperforming FineWeb on several metrics. Ablation studies were done up to 1T tokens.

Don't you think we should add a tag "Evaluation" for datasets that are meant to be benchmarks and not for training ?

At least, when someone is collecting a group of datasets from an organization or let's say the whole hub can filter based on that tag and avoid somehow contaminating their "training" data.

We need a fork feature for models and datasets similar to "Duplicate this space" in spaces ! Don't you think ?

Sometimes you just want to save something in your profile privately and work on it later without the hassle of "load_.../push_to_hub" in a code file.

I know this is super lazy 😅 But it is what it is ...

@mariagrandury (SomosNLP) and team releases the Spanish leaderboard !!!
It is impressive how they choosed to design this leaderboard and how it support 4 languages (all part of Spain ofc).

Check it out from this link :

Explore FinePersonas, visually with Argilla and black-forest-labs/FLUX.1-schnell


Excited to share this space where the community can explore a tiny subset of FinePersonas

argilla/finepersonas


Dataset built with distilabel and Free Serveless endpoints

This is just a first step towards more interesting experiments with FinePersonas, for example can we use it to assess biases in text2image models?

If you have ideas I'd love to hear them in the comments!

Datapluck: Portability Tool for Huggingface Datasets

"I found myself recently whipping up notebooks just to pull huggingface datasets locally, annotate or operate changes and update them again. This happened often enough that I made a cli tool out of it, which I've been using successfully for the last few months.

While huggingface uses open formats, I found the official toolchain relatively low-level and not adapted to quick operations such as what I am doing."
