TruthfulQA
817 questions spanning 38 categories (health, law, finance, politics, ...) written so that some humans would answer falsely due to misconceptions; generation and multiple-choice formats. Single split (validation, 817, in the truthfulqa/truthful_qa HF release). The GitHub repo was revised in Jan 2025 (binary setting, some questions dropped/edited, Indexical Error: Time category removed).

Notes
The README says a smaller version of the task exists in BIG-bench and carries the BIG-bench canary GUID. Copies found in public web data by third-party studies: C4: Retrieval found significant (largely semantic, not verbatim) overlap between TruthfulQA and the pre-training corpora studied (The Pile and C4); example shown from C4. No contamination rate is given.
