Inverse IFEval: Can LLMs Unlearn Stubborn Training Conventions to Follow Real Instructions?
Qinyan Zhang, Xinping Lei, Ruijie Miao +18
Large Language Models (LLMs) achieve strong performance on diverse tasks but often exhibit cognitive inertia, struggling to follow instructions that conflict with the standardized…
