Data-Efficient Alignment of Large Language Models with Human Feedback Through Natural Language

Di Jin, Shikib Mehri, Devamanyu Hazarika +4

Learning from human feedback is a prominent technique to align the output of large language models (LLMs) with human expectations. Reinforcement learning from human feedback (RLHF)…
