Kathy Reid<p>Each quarter, when the new <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mozilla.social/@mozilla" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>mozilla</span></a></span> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/CommonVoice" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CommonVoice</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/dataset" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>dataset</span></a> is released, I do a <a href="https://aus.social/tags/dataviz" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>dataviz</span></a> using <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://vis.social/@observablehq" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>observablehq</span></a></span> of its <a href="https://aus.social/tags/metadata" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>metadata</span></a> coverage, across all 100+ languages, based on the JSON summary that is part of the release. </p><p>Some of my observations from the v18 release are: </p><p>💡 <a href="https://aus.social/tags/Catalan" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Catalan</span></a> (ca) now has a larger dataset than English, based on the number of audio recordings (including validated and yet-to-be-validated recordings). It’s also an interesting dataset because the number of recordings per unique contributor is relatively low (around 80). This means it’s likely to have a high diversity of speakers in the dataset, which is useful for building <a href="https://aus.social/tags/ASR" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ASR</span></a> models that generalise well to many speakers. </p><p>Catalan also appears to have the highest percentage of audio recordings by older speakers - e.g. speakers in their forties, fifties and older. Again, this highlights the diversity of speakers in the Catalan dataset.</p><p>💡 Although it’s very early to see any trends from the decision by Common Voice to expand the range of options for gender identity, we are starting to see some data being tagged with the new options that are available. For example, in <a href="https://aus.social/tags/Uyghur" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Uyghur</span></a> (ug), we now have data tagged as “do not wish to say”. I don’t want to draw connections between the geopolitical situation in that area and the desire of data contributors not to provide demographic data which may in some way identify them without more evidence, but I think it’s telling that the first use of these expanded metadata categories appears in a language that is spoken in a contested geography.</p><p>💡Similarly, it’s very early to identify trends in sentence domain classification - as most of the sentences that do have a domain tag are labelled “general”, although “health_care” sentences are occurring frequently in languages such as <a href="https://aus.social/tags/Albanian" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Albanian</span></a> (sq).</p><p>💡<a href="https://aus.social/tags/Bangla" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Bangla</span></a> (Bengali) (bn) continues to have a very large number of yet-to-be-validated audio recordings. Due to this, the train split for Bangla is quite small.</p><p>💡<a href="https://aus.social/tags/Dholuo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Dholuo</span></a> (luo), a language spoken in Kenya and Tanzania, is an outlier in terms of the number of distinct data contributors to the dataset - this language has a very high average number of contributions for per contributor. This is often seen in languages that are new to Common Voice, before they have been able to recruit more contributors. Dholuo has nearly 5 million speakers.</p><p>💡 The language with the highest average utterance duration is by far <a href="https://aus.social/tags/Icelandic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Icelandic</span></a> (is) at over 7 seconds. This may be because Icelandic has many words with several syllables, which take longer to pronounce. Consider "the cat sat on the mat" in English, cf "kötturinn sat á mottunni" in Icelandic.</p><p>Big thanks to all data contributors in this release for your donated utterances, and to Dmitrij Feller, <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.social/@jessie" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>jessie</span></a></span>, Gina Moape, EM Lewis-Jong and the team for all your efforts. </p><p>What are your thoughts?

Kathy Reid<p>Like many other technologists, I gave my time and expertise for free to <a href="https://aus.social/tags/StackOverflow" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>StackOverflow</span></a> because the content was licensed CC-BY-SA - meaning that it was a public good. It brought me joy to help people figure out why their <a href="https://aus.social/tags/ASR" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ASR</span></a> code wasn't working, or assist with a <a href="https://aus.social/tags/CUDA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CUDA</span></a> bug. </p><p>Now that a deal has been struck with <a href="https://aus.social/tags/OpenAI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>OpenAI</span></a> to scrape all the questions and answers in Stack Overflow, to train <a href="https://aus.social/tags/GenerativeAI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>GenerativeAI</span></a> models, like <a href="https://aus.social/tags/LLMs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>LLMs</span></a>, without attribution to authors (as required under the CC-BY-SA license under which Stack Overflow content is licensed), to be sold back to us (the SA clause requires derivative works to be shared under the same license), I have issued a Data Deletion request to Stack Overflow to disassociate my username from my Stack Overflow username, and am closing my account, just like I did with Reddit, Inc. </p><p><a href="https://policies.stackoverflow.co/data-request/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">policies.stackoverflow.co/data</span><span class="invisible">-request/</span></a></p><p>The data I helped create is going to be bundled in an <a href="https://aus.social/tags/LLM" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>LLM</span></a> and sold back to me. </p><p>In a single move, Stack Overflow has alienated its community - which is also its main source of competitive advantage, in exchange for token lucre. </p><p>Stack Exchange, Stack Overflow's former instantiation, used to fulfill a psychological contract - help others out when you can, for the expectation that others may in turn assist you in the future. Now it's not an exchange, it's <a href="https://aus.social/tags/enshittification" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>enshittification</span></a>. </p><p>Programmers now join artists and copywriters, whose works have been snaffled up to create <a href="https://aus.social/tags/GenAI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>GenAI</span></a> solutions. </p><p>The silver lining I see is that once OpenAI creates LLMs that generate code - like Microsoft has done with Copilot on GitHub - where will they go to get help with the bugs that the generative AI models introduce, particularly, given the recent GitClear report, of the "downward pressure on code quality" caused by these tools? </p><p>While this is just one more example of <a href="https://aus.social/tags/enshittification" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>enshittification</span></a>, it's also a salient lesson for <a href="https://aus.social/tags/DevRel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>DevRel</span></a> folks - if your community is your source of advantage, don't upset them.</p>
