Harmless Alpaca (Italian)

Italian machine translation of mlabonne/harmless_alpaca, itself a repackaging of instructions from tatsu-lab/alpaca.

Dataset Description

This dataset contains the harmless instructions from the original Alpaca dataset, translated from English to Italian. It is intended for research use, e.g. building or evaluating Italian-language instruction-following models.

Translation Process

Translations were generated using Helsinki-NLP/Opus-MT.

Note: translations were produced automatically and have only partially been manually reviewed. As with any machine-translated dataset, expect occasional errors in idiom, tone, or formatting (especially around code snippets, placeholders, or unusual sentence structures in the original text). Use accordingly.
