Great work! I’m glad our benchmarks KoBBQ, KOLD, and CLIcK are used to evaluate HyperCLOVA_X. Making progress in Korean LLM! 🇰🇷🇰🇷🇰🇷 arxiv.org/abs/2307.16778 arxiv.org/abs/2205.11315 arxiv.org/abs/2403.06412

I can’t keep up with all these new papers and datasets from my students 😊 @j6mes and I wanted to give #kaist undergrad students research experience with LLMs in their own languages, and this is one of the outcomes of that project!
