Studying Large Language Model Generalization with Influence Functions
Roger Grosse, Juhan Bae, Cem Anil +14
When trying to gain better visibility into a machine learning model in order to understand and mitigate the associated risks, a potentially valuable source of evidence is: which tr…
Question Decomposition Improves the Faithfulness of Model-Generated Reasoning
Ansh Radhakrishnan, Karina Nguyen, Anna Chen +21
As large language models (LLMs) perform more difficult tasks, it becomes harder to verify the correctness and safety of their behavior. One approach to help with this issue is to p…
Measuring Faithfulness in Chain-of-Thought Reasoning
Tamera Lanham, Anna Chen, Ansh Radhakrishnan +27
Large language models (LLMs) perform better when they produce step-by-step, "Chain-of-Thought" (CoT) reasoning before answering a question, but it is unclear if the stated reasonin…
Inverse Scaling: When Bigger Isn't Better
Ian R. McKenzie, Alexander Lyzhov, Michael Pieler +24
Work on scaling laws has found that large language models (LMs) show predictable improvements to overall loss with increased scale (model size, training data, and compute). Here, w…
Language Models Don't Always Say What They Think: Unfaithful Explanations in Chain-of-Thought Prompting
Miles Turpin, Julian Michael, Ethan Perez +1
Large Language Models (LLMs) can achieve strong performance on many tasks by producing step-by-step reasoning before giving a final output, often referred to as chain-of-thought re…
Training Language Models with Language Feedback at Scale
Jérémy Scheurer, Jon Ander Campos, Tomasz Korbak +4
Pretrained language models often generate outputs that are not in line with human preferences, such as harmful text or factually incorrect summaries. Recent work approaches the abo…
