# Excitement Small

This is a synthetically generated dataset of 388 examples of excitement. The purpose of this dataset is to provide models with training surrounding when to be "excited" or encouraging to the user.

Seed examples were generated by Claude Sonnet 4.5, expanded by Deepseek V3.2 Terminus, filtered by GPT-OSS:120B for quality, and again filtered by a human for quality.
