Description

I am trying to follow the example here

https://www.deepspeed.ai/tutorials/bert-pretraining/

The section on getting the datasets says 'Note: Downloading and pre-processing instructions are coming soon.'.

I tried googling but those datasets seem tricky to find. And even then, I'm not sure if they would be the correct versions to use for the script.

Research direction

Start with the dataset section of the BERT pretraining tutorial at https://www.deepspeed.ai/tutorials/bert-pretraining/. Determine which Wikipedia and BookCorpus versions the example expects and document reliable download and preprocessing instructions. Done means a reader can obtain the intended datasets and prepare them for the tutorial script.
