When trying to load the "microphone-single" or the "microphone-multi" configurations, a RuntimeError is raised:
.../huggingface/datasets/src/datasets/builder.py in _prepare_split(self, split_generator, check_duplicate_keys, file_format, num_proc, max_shard_size)
1415 fpath = path_join(self._output_dir, fname)

1418 if num_input_shards <= 1 and num_proc is not None:

.../huggingface/datasets/src/datasets/utils/sharding.py in _number_of_shards_in_gen_kwargs(gen_kwargs)
10 lists_lengths = {key: len(value) for key, value in gen_kwargs.items() if isinstance(value, list)}

RuntimeError: Sharding is ambiguous for this dataset: we found several data sources lists of different lengths, and we don't know over which list we should parallelize:
- key samples_paths has length 6
- key ids has length 7
- key verification_ids has length 6
To fix this, check the 'gen_kwargs' and make sure to use lists only for data sources, and use tuples otherwise. In the end there should only be one single list, or several lists with the same length.
We are fixing it in the datasets
library. See PR: https://github.com/huggingface/datasets/pull/5416
