| # Animal-compassion seed corpus (gated) |
|
|
| 893,935 de-identified excerpts of public online discussion about animal welfare |
| (columns: seed_text, category, tier, animal_relevant). Used by CaML's synthetic |
| data pipelines as TOPIC grounding only: generation prompts inject short snippets |
| as inspiration and instruct the model never to copy text or adopt stance. |
| Generated corpora contain no text from this dataset. |
|
|
| Access is gated: use for research/analysis only, no redistribution, no |
| re-identification attempts. |

|
| ## Provenance and output verification (updated 16 July 2026) |
|
|
| This corpus is used strictly as topic-grounding seed material: generation prompts inject short |
| snippets as inspiration and instruct the model never to copy text or adopt stance. This is verified, |
| not asserted: a 13-word n-gram scan across all 893,935 seeds against CaML's released synthetic |
| corpora found overlap in only 10 seeds (0.001%), every one an official treaty name (e.g. the full |
| name of CITES) or standard statutory phrasing, and none of them user discussion text. |
