"textContent": "Hi I have been working on training t5-small to do a cusgom task for example\n\nEndorsement A: Fraudulent Claims Clause – SA200\n\nand convert it to\n\nFraudulent Clause – SA200;\n\nThis is a very contrived example but hopefully you get the idea.\n\nSo after training the model is outputting im getting is quite good.\n\nThe problem I have come across is what the model does if it gets a pievce of text it doesnt understand -\n\n“Hi my name is t5.”\n\nI would like the model to output nothing. Instead T5 attempts a translation task instead.\n\ni would really like to it output nothing in this case.\n\nWhati have done so far\n\n 1. I played around with appending “summarize” to the input text. But i dont think this is the correct task as it “kind of” worked but removed more text from the original input than i would of liked\n\n\n\nAny ideas of how i can handle input that doesn’t match with the specific task i am doing?\n\nThank you.",
