Its website (sec.gov) ranked at #39 and accounted for 36 million, or 0.02%, of C4's tokens.<\/p>\n<p>Bitcointalk.org, a blockchain discussion board created by <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/glossary\/satoshi-nakamoto\/\">Satoshi Nakamoto<\/a>, ranked at #780. It accounted for 6.1 million, or 0.004%, of C4's tokens.<\/p>\n<p>Cryptocurrency news and aggregation sites such as Cointelegraph and Coinmarketcap.com were also represented. Eight such sites collectively accounted for at least 0.008% of C4's tokens, though other sites likely increase the true total.<\/p>\n<p>Websites related to specific cryptocurrencies and exchanges were also represented in the dataset but accounted for a negligible amount of tokens.<\/p>\n<p>Two crypto-adjacent sites also ranked highly. <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/glossary\/ipfs\/\">IPFS<\/a> (ipfs.io) ranked at #16 while <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/products\/steemit\/\">Steemit<\/a> (steemit.com) ranked at #594. The first site is a distributed network from the blockchain firm Protocol Labs, while the second makes direct use of blockchain.

Though the dataset's name suggests that it has been &#8220;cleaned,&#8221; its assemblers only used a list of 400 words to censor specific content, meaning that controversial content remains intact.<\/p>\n<p>The presence of crypto sites, as well as the presence of controversial data, could affect the level of bias seen in content produced by AI chatbots.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Colossal Clean Crawled Corpus (C4), an AI dataset used by major tech companies, contains data from various crypto-related websites.
