Fine-tuning language models to find agreement among humans with diverse preferences

Michiel A. Bakker, Martin J. Chadwick, Hannah R. Sheahan +8

Recent work in large language modeling (LLMs) has used fine-tuning to align outputs with the preferences of a prototypical user. This work assumes that human preferences are static…

Fine-Tuning Language Models via Epistemic Neural Networks

Ian Osband, Seyed Mohammad Asghari, Benjamin Van Roy +3

Language models often pre-train on large unsupervised text corpora, then fine-tune on additional task-specific data. However, typical fine-tuning schemes do not prioritize the exam…

Improving alignment of dialogue agents via targeted human judgements

Amelia Glaese, Nat McAleese, Maja Trębacz +31

We present Sparrow, an information-seeking dialogue agent trained to be more helpful, correct, and harmless compared to prompted language model baselines. We use reinforcement lear…

Teaching language models to support answers with verified quotes

Jacob Menick, Maja Trebacz, Vladimir Mikulik +8

Recent large language models often answer factual questions correctly. But users can't trust any given claim a model makes without fact-checking, because language models can halluc…

Red Teaming Language Models with Language Models

Ethan Perez, Saffron Huang, Francis Song +6

Language Models (LMs) often cannot be deployed because of their potential to harm users in hard-to-predict ways. Prior work identifies harmful behaviors before deployment by using…
