2. **Code** is the highest-weighted category for QA Blend 1T (~20%), while **QA** is the highest for QA Blend (~12%).
3. **Web Crawl, News Articles, Finance, and Multilingual** have the lowest weights for both data sources (~3–4%).
4. **QA Blend** shows a peak in **Papers** (~18%), while QA Blend 1T peaks in **Code** (~20%).
### Interpretation
- **QA Blend 1T** demonstrates broader utility across categories, with significant weight in **Code** and **Legal**, suggesting it may be optimized for technical or specialized data.
- **QA Blend** has a stronger presence in **Papers** and **QA**, indicating a focus on academic or direct question-answering tasks.
- The **QA** category is an outlier, where QA Blend outperforms QA Blend 1T, possibly reflecting a design choice to prioritize direct QA tasks in the original model.
- The **Multilingual** category shows equal weight for both, suggesting balanced performance in multilingual contexts.
- The **Finance** and **News Articles** categories have minimal weight, implying these sources are less critical to the models' training data.
### Trends Verification
- **QA Blend 1T** slopes upward in most categories compared to QA Blend, except for **QA** and **Encyclopedia**.
- **QA Blend** shows a bimodal distribution, with peaks in **Papers** and **QA**, while QA Blend 1T has a more uniform distribution.
