On the Danger of Stochastic Parrots [pdf]
The GPT-3 paper (section 2.2) mentions using two datasets referred to as "books1" and "books2", which are 12B and 55B byte pair encoded tokens each.
Project Gutenberg has 3B word tokens I believe, so it seems like it could be one of them, assuming the ratio of word tokens to byte-pair tokens is something like 3:12 to 3:55.
Another likely candidate alongside Gutenberg is libgen, apparently, and looks like there have been successful efforts to create a similar dataset called bookcorpus: https://github.com/soskek/bookcorpus/issues/27). The discussion on that github issue suggests bookcorpus is very similar to "books2", which would make gutenberg "books1"?
This might be why the paper is intentionally vague about the books used?

Alternatives Toronoto Book Corpus
I'm trying to train a variational autoencoder like in a paper I read. They used the toronto book corpus, but that is no longer available. I also tried a script from github, which didn't work either (https://github.com/sgraaf/Replicate-Toronto-BookCorpus). Are there publically available datasets that are comparable in quality and type of language?
