There was a paper that proposed a content based hashing mask for traning
The idea is you have some window size, maybe 32 tokens. Hash it into a seed for a pseudo random number generator. Generate random numbers in the range 0..1 for each token in the window. Compare this number against a threshold. Don't count the loss for any tokens with a rng value higher than the threshold.
It learns well enough because you get the gist of reading the meaning of something when the occasional word is missing, especially if you are learning the same thing expressed many ways.
It can't learn verbatim however. Anything that it fills in will be semantically similar, but different enough to get cause any direct quoting onto another path after just a few words.
