Chinese web pollution has surfaced in LLMs, motivating audits of upstream Chinese corpora. However, auditing such corpora faces three challenges: (1) their web-scale size makes ful…
YuFeng-XGuard: A Reasoning-Centric, Interpretable, and Flexible Guardrail Model for Large Language Models
Junyu Lin, Meizhen Liu, Xiufeng Huang +12
As large language models (LLMs) are increasingly deployed in real-world applications, safety guardrails are required to go beyond coarse-grained filtering and support fine-grained,…
Oyster-I: Beyond Refusal -- Constructive Safety Alignment for Responsible Language Models
Ranjie Duan, Jiexi Liu, Xiaojun Jia +27
Large language models (LLMs) typically deploy safety mechanisms to prevent harmful content generation. Most current approaches focus narrowly on risks posed by malicious actors, of…
