Dataset Card for Alpaca Dataset Summary Alpaca is a dataset of 52,000 instructions and demonstrations generated by OpenAI's text-davinci-003 engine. This instruction data can be used to conduct instruction-tuning for language models and make the language model follow instruction better. The authors built on the data generation pipeline from Self-Instruct framework and made the following modifications: The text-davinci-003 engine to generate the instruction data… See the full description on the dataset page: https://huggingface.co/datasets/tatsu-lab/alpaca.
Documentation Coverage reflects what was present in the Hugging Face record on August 7, 2026. A field marked "not found" means Archivum did not locate it in the published metadata — not that the dataset lacks that property. How coverage is measured

| Below is an instruction that describes a task. Write a response that appropriately completes the request. ### Instruction: Describe the structure of an atom. ### Response: An atom is made up of a nucleus, which contains protons and neutrons, surrounded by electrons that travel in orbits around the nucleus. The protons and neutrons have a positive charge, while the electrons have a negative charge, resulting in an overall neutral atom. The number of each particle determines the atomic number an… | An atom is made up of a nucleus, which contains protons and neutrons, surrounded by electrons that travel in orbits around the nucleus.

I was in charge of a project that needed to be completed by a certain date in order to meet the client’s expectations. However, due to unexpected delays, we were not able to meet the deadline and so I had to make a difficult decision. I decided to extend the deadline, but I had to stretch the team’s resources even further and increase the budget. Although it was a risky decision, I ultimately de… | Describe a time when you had to make a difficult decision. |
