Teaching Models to Balance Resisting and Accepting Persuasion

Elias Stengel-Eskin, Peter Hase, Mohit Bansal

Large language models (LLMs) are susceptible to persuasion, which can pose risks when models are faced with an adversarial interlocutor. We take a first step towards defending mode…

Fundamental Problems With Model Editing: How Should Rational Belief Revision Work in LLMs?

Peter Hase, Thomas Hofweber, Xiang Zhou +2

The model editing problem concerns how language models should learn new facts about the world over time. While empirical research on model editing has drawn widespread attention, t…

Are language models rational? The case of coherence norms and belief revision

Thomas Hofweber, Peter Hase, Elias Stengel-Eskin +1

Do norms of rationality apply to machine learning models, in particular language models? In this paper we investigate this question by focusing on a special subset of rational norm…

LACIE: Listener-Aware Finetuning for Confidence Calibration in Large Language Models

Elias Stengel-Eskin, Peter Hase, Mohit Bansal

When answering questions, LLMs can convey not only an answer, but a level of confidence about the answer being correct. This includes explicit confidence markers (e.g. giving a num…

The Unreasonable Effectiveness of Easy Training Data for Hard Tasks

Peter Hase, Mohit Bansal, Peter Clark +1

How can we train models to perform well on hard test data when hard training data is by definition difficult to label correctly? This question has been termed the scalable oversigh…
