AI-Assisted Generation of Difficult Math Questions

Vedant Shah, Dingli Yu, Kaifeng Lyu +8

Current LLM training positions mathematical reasoning as a core capability. With publicly available sources fully tapped, there is unmet demand for diverse and challenging math que…

Safety Alignment Should Be Made More Than Just a Few Tokens Deep

Xiangyu Qi, Ashwinee Panda, Kaifeng Lyu +5

The safety alignment of current Large Language Models (LLMs) is vulnerable. Relatively simple attacks, or even benign fine-tuning, can jailbreak aligned models. We argue that many…

Keeping LLMs Aligned After Fine-tuning: The Crucial Role of Prompt Templates

Kaifeng Lyu, Haoyu Zhao, Xinran Gu +3

Public LLMs such as the Llama 2-Chat underwent alignment training and were considered safe. Recently Qi et al. [2024] reported that even benign fine-tuning on seemingly safe datase…
