Long-Term Simulation Exposes Cognitive-Developmental Risks in AI Companions
Kaicheng Shen, Lingyu Li, Wen Wu +3
AI companions powered by large language models increasingly interact with cognition-developing users, including children and adolescents, creating risks that may accumulate over ti…
Can Heterogeneous Language Models Be Fused?
Shilian Chen, Jie Zhou, Qin Chen +4
Model merging aims to integrate multiple expert models into a single model that inherits their complementary strengths without incurring the inference-time cost of ensembling. Rece…
MENTOR: A Metacognition-Driven Self-Evolution Framework for Uncovering and Mitigating Implicit Domain Risks in LLMs
Liang Shan, Kaicheng Shen, Wen Wu +9
Ensuring the safety of Large Language Models (LLMs) is critical for real-world deployment. However, current safety measures often fail to address implicit, domain-specific risks. T…
Forget What's Sensitive, Remember What Matters: Token-Level Differential Privacy in Memory Sculpting for Continual Learning
Bihao Zhan, Jie Zhou, Junsong Li +9
Continual Learning (CL) models, while adept at sequential knowledge acquisition, face significant and often overlooked privacy challenges due to accumulating diverse information. T…
