Stabilizing Efficient Reasoning with Step-Level Advantage Selection
Han Wang, Xiaodong Yu, Jialian Wu +4
Large language models (LLMs) achieve strong reasoning performance by allocating substantial computation at inference time, often generating long and verbose reasoning traces. While…
Persona Vectors: Monitoring and Controlling Character Traits in Language Models
Runjin Chen, Andy Arditi, Henry Sleight +2
Large language models interact with users through a simulated 'Assistant' persona. While the Assistant is typically trained to be helpful, harmless, and honest, it sometimes deviat…
Unsupervised Elicitation of Language Models
Jiaxin Wen, Zachary Ankner, Arushi Somani +10
To steer pretrained language models for downstream tasks, today's post-training paradigm relies on humans to specify desired behaviors. However, for models with superhuman capabili…
Best-of-N Jailbreaking
John Hughes, Sara Price, Aengus Lynch +7
We introduce Best-of-N (BoN) Jailbreaking, a simple black-box algorithm that jailbreaks frontier AI systems across modalities. BoN Jailbreaking works by repeatedly sampling variati…
Adaptive Deployment of Untrusted LLMs Reduces Distributed Threats
Jiaxin Wen, Vivek Hebbar, Caleb Larson +9
As large language models (LLMs) become increasingly capable, it is prudent to assess whether safety measures remain effective even if LLMs intentionally try to bypass them. Previou…
Rapid Response: Mitigating LLM Jailbreaks with a Few Examples
Alwin Peng, Julian Michael, Henry Sleight +2
As large language models (LLMs) grow more powerful, ensuring their safety against misuse becomes crucial. While researchers have focused on developing robust defenses, no method ha…
Looking Inward: Language Models Can Learn About Themselves by Introspection
Felix J Binder, James Chua, Tomek Korbak +6
Humans acquire knowledge by observing the external world, but also by introspection. Introspection gives a person privileged access to their current state of mind (e.g., thoughts a…
Failures to Find Transferable Image Jailbreaks Between Vision-Language Models
Rylan Schaeffer, Dan Valentine, Luke Bailey +12
The integration of new modalities into frontier AI systems offers exciting capabilities, but also increases the possibility such systems can be adversarially manipulated in undesir…
