Training Language Models to Explain Their Own Computations

Belinda Z. Li, Zifan Carl Guo, Vincent Huang +2

Can language models (LMs) learn to faithfully describe their internal computations? Are they better able to describe themselves than other models? We study the extent to which LMs'…

(How) Do Language Models Track State?

Belinda Z. Li, Zifan Carl Guo, Jacob Andreas

Transformer language models (LMs) exhibit behaviors -- from storytelling to code generation -- that seem to require tracking the unobserved state of an evolving world. How do they…

Interpreting User Requests in the Context of Natural Language Standing Instructions

Nikita Moghe, Patrick Xia, Jacob Andreas +3

Users of natural language interfaces, generally powered by Large Language Models (LLMs),often must repeat their preferences each time they make a similar request. We describe an ap…

Eliciting Human Preferences with Language Models

Belinda Z. Li, Alex Tamkin, Noah Goodman +1

Language models (LMs) can be directed to perform target tasks by using labeled examples or natural language prompts. But selecting examples or writing prompts for can be challengin…
