Building a Foundational Guardrail for General Agentic Systems via Synthetic Data
Yue Huang, Hang Hua, Yujun Zhou +11
While LLM agents can plan multi-step tasks, intervening at the planning stage-before any action is executed-is often the safest way to prevent harm, since certain risks can lead to…
Granite Guardian
Inkit Padhi, Manish Nagireddy, Giandomenico Cornacchia +20
We introduce the Granite Guardian models, a suite of safeguards designed to provide risk detection for prompts and responses, enabling safe and responsible use in combination with…
Programming Refusal with Conditional Activation Steering
Bruce W. Lee, Inkit Padhi, Karthikeyan Natesan Ramamurthy +4
LLMs have shown remarkable capabilities, but precisely controlling their response behavior remains challenging. Existing activation steering methods alter LLM behavior indiscrimina…
Value Alignment from Unstructured Text
Inkit Padhi, Karthikeyan Natesan Ramamurthy, Prasanna Sattigeri +3
Aligning large language models (LLMs) to value systems has emerged as a significant area of research within the fields of AI and NLP. Currently, this alignment process relies on th…
When in Doubt, Cascade: Towards Building Efficient and Capable Guardrails
Manish Nagireddy, Inkit Padhi, Soumya Ghosh +1
Large language models (LLMs) have convincing performance in a variety of downstream tasks. However, these systems are prone to generating undesirable outputs such as harmful and bi…
The RealHumanEval: Evaluating Large Language Models' Abilities to Support Programmers
Hussein Mozannar, Valerie Chen, Mohammed Alsobay +7
Evaluation of large language models for code has primarily relied on static benchmarks, including HumanEval (Chen et al., 2021), or more recently using human preferences of LLM res…
Contextual Moral Value Alignment Through Context-Based Aggregation
Pierre Dognin, Jesus Rios, Ronny Luss +7
Developing value-aligned AI agents is a complex undertaking and an ongoing challenge in the field of AI. Specifically within the domain of Large Language Models (LLMs), the capabil…
Alignment Studio: Aligning Large Language Models to Particular Contextual Regulations
Swapnaja Achintalwar, Ioana Baldini, Djallel Bouneffouf +16
The alignment of large language models is usually done by model providers to add or control behaviors that are common or universally understood across use cases and contexts. In co…
Language Models in Dialogue: Conversational Maxims for Human-AI Interactions
Erik Miehling, Manish Nagireddy, Prasanna Sattigeri +3
Modern language models, while sophisticated, exhibit some inherent shortcomings, particularly in conversational settings. We claim that many of the observed shortcomings can be att…
Multi-Level Explanations for Generative Language Models
Lucas Monteiro Paes, Dennis Wei, Hyo Jin Do +8
Despite the increasing use of large language models (LLMs) for context-grounded tasks like summarization and question-answering, understanding what makes an LLM produce a certain r…
Detectors for Safe and Reliable LLMs: Implementations, Uses, and Limitations
Swapnaja Achintalwar, Adriana Alvarado Garcia, Ateret Anaby-Tavor +35
Large language models (LLMs) are susceptible to a variety of risks, from non-faithful output to biased and toxic generations. Due to several limiting factors surrounding LLMs (trai…
SocialStigmaQA: A Benchmark to Uncover Stigma Amplification in Generative Language Models
Manish Nagireddy, Lamogha Chiazor, Moninder Singh +1
Current datasets for unwanted social bias auditing are limited to studying protected demographic features such as race and gender. In this work, we introduce a comprehensive benchm…
Keeping Up with the Language Models: Systematic Benchmark Extension for Bias Auditing
Ioana Baldini, Chhavi Yadav, Manish Nagireddy +2
Bias auditing of language models (LMs) has received considerable attention as LMs are becoming widespread. As such, several benchmarks for bias auditing have been proposed. At the…
Function Composition in Trustworthy Machine Learning: Implementation Choices, Insights, and Questions
Manish Nagireddy, Moninder Singh, Samuel C. Hoffman +3
Ensuring trustworthiness in machine learning (ML) models is a multi-dimensional task. In addition to the traditional notion of predictive performance, other notions such as privacy…
