Discovering Language Model Behaviors with Model-Written Evaluations
Ethan Perez, Sam Ringer, Kamilė Lukošiūtė +60
As language models (LMs) scale, they develop many novel behaviors, good and bad, exacerbating the need to evaluate how they behave. Prior work creates evaluations with crowdwork (w…
Constitutional AI: Harmlessness from AI Feedback
Yuntao Bai, Saurav Kadavath, Sandipan Kundu +48
As AI systems become more capable, we would like to enlist their help to supervise other AIs. We experiment with methods for training a harmless AI assistant through self-improveme…
Red Teaming Language Models to Reduce Harms: Methods, Scaling Behaviors, and Lessons Learned
Deep Ganguli, Liane Lovitt, Jackson Kernion +33
We describe our early efforts to red team language models in order to simultaneously discover, measure, and attempt to reduce their potentially harmful outputs. We make three main…
Language Models (Mostly) Know What They Know
Saurav Kadavath, Tom Conerly, Amanda Askell +33
We study whether language models can evaluate the validity of their own claims and predict which questions they will be able to answer correctly. We first show that larger models a…
Beyond the Imitation Game: Quantifying and extrapolating the capabilities of language models
Aarohi Srivastava, Abhinav Rastogi, Abhishek Rao +448
Language models demonstrate both quantitative improvement and new qualitative capabilities with increasing scale. Despite their potentially transformative impact, these new capabil…
Training a Helpful and Harmless Assistant with Reinforcement Learning from Human Feedback
Yuntao Bai, Andy Jones, Kamal Ndousse +28
We apply preference modeling and reinforcement learning from human feedback (RLHF) to finetune language models to act as helpful and harmless assistants. We find this alignment tra…
