When the LM misunderstood the human chuckled: Analyzing garden path effects in humans and language models

Samuel Joseph Amouyal, Aya Meltzer-Asscher, Jonathan Berant

Modern Large Language Models (LLMs) have shown human-like abilities in many language tasks, sparking interest in comparing LLMs' and humans' language processing. In this paper, we…

InfAlign: Inference-aware language model alignment

Ananth Balashankar, Ziteng Sun, Jonathan Berant +9

Language model alignment is a critical step in training modern generative language models. Alignment targets to improve win rate of a sample from the aligned model against the base…

Rewarding Progress: Scaling Automated Process Verifiers for LLM Reasoning

Amrith Setlur, Chirag Nagpal, Adam Fisch +6

A promising approach for improving reasoning in large language models is to use process reward models (PRMs). PRMs provide feedback at each step of a multi-step reasoning trace, po…

ALTA: Compiler-Based Analysis of Transformers

Peter Shaw, James Cohan, Jacob Eisenstein +3

We propose a new programming language called ALTA and a compiler that can map ALTA programs to Transformer weights. ALTA is inspired by RASP, a language proposed by Weiss et al. (2…

AssistantBench: Can Web Agents Solve Realistic and Time-Consuming Tasks?

Ori Yoran, Samuel Joseph Amouyal, Chaitanya Malaviya +3

Language agents, built on top of language models (LMs), are systems that can interact with complex environments, such as the open web. In this work, we examine whether such agents…

From Loops to Oops: Fallback Behaviors of Language Models Under Uncertainty

Maor Ivgi, Ori Yoran, Jonathan Berant +1

Large language models (LLMs) often exhibit undesirable behaviors, such as hallucinations and sequence repetitions. We propose to view these behaviors as fallbacks that models exhib…
