Inoculation Adapters: Improved Selective Generalization of Capabilities with Fewer Surprising Backdoors

Maxime Riché, Daniel Tan, Vili Kohonen +1

The paper proposes inoculation adapters, a LoRA‑based method that trains on undesired traits and then discards the adapter to improve selective generalization of desired capabiliti…

Value Leakage: An LLM's Answers Are Silently Shaped by Its Own Values

Jan Betley, Johannes Treutlein, Jan Dubiński +7

The paper identifies and measures covert value leakage, where large language models let their own values subtly bias answers without informing users, and introduces evaluation suit…

Beyond Linear Steering: Unified Multi-Attribute Control for Language Models

Narmeen Oozeer, Luke Marks, Shreyans Jain +2

Controlling multiple behavioral attributes in large language models (LLMs) at inference time is a challenging problem due to interference between attributes and the limitations of…

Emergent Misalignment: Narrow finetuning can produce broadly misaligned LLMs

Jan Betley, Daniel Tan, Niels Warncke +5

We present a surprising result regarding LLMs and alignment. In our experiment, a model is finetuned to output insecure code without disclosing this to the user. The resulting mode…

Inoculation Prompting: Eliciting traits from LLMs during training can suppress them at test-time

Daniel Tan, Anders Woodruff, Niels Warncke +4

Language model finetuning often results in learning undesirable traits in combination with desired ones. To address this, we propose inoculation prompting: modifying finetuning dat…
