talkie-timetravel-synth
Synthetic modern-knowledge corpora for updating talkie-lm/talkie-1930-13b-base (pre-1931 model) with post-1930 knowledge, following the SDF methodology of Believe It or Not (arXiv:2510.17941).
- docs (96,689 rows; train + 100-row held-out test):
sdfcluster documents (types -> ideas -> docs pipeline; per-cluster fact lists; ~25% mid-century print register) andbridgeyear-in-review digests (1931-2026 x 4 registers).held_out_control=trueclusters are generated but must NOT be trained on (genre-vs-knowledge controls). At training time synthetic docs get a loss-masked<DOCTAG>prefix (tag added at packing, not present intext). - factpairs (450 rows, eval -> single test split): true/false minimal pairs for the length-normalized P(fact) logprob battery. Groups:
pre1930(positive control; stock talkie-1930 acc 0.92),post1930(stock acc 0.49 = deprivation floor),cluster_*(uptake probes).
Generation: Claude Haiku 4.5 Message Batches (documents), Claude Sonnet 5 (cluster specs/fact lists). Every document is filtered against a ban-list of 486 held-out eval referents; exact dedup + length filters applied.
Training code + reproduction: code/ (this repo) and the talkie-cpt trainer. Figure: figures/corpus_overview.png.
