We created a new taxonomy of 13 hazard categories, of which 7 have tests in the v0. 5 benchmark.

Look at the Text: Instruction-Tuned Language Models are More Robust Multiple Choice Selectors than You Think

no code implementations12 Apr 2024 Xinpeng Wang, Chengzhi Hu, Bolei Ma, Paul Röttger, Barbara Plank

We show that the text answers are more robust to question perturbations than the first token probabilities, when the first token answers mismatch the text answers.

SafetyPrompts: a Systematic Review of Open Datasets for Evaluating and Improving Large Language Model Safety

2 code implementations8 Apr 2024 Paul Röttger, Fabio Pernisi, Bertie Vidgen, Dirk Hovy

Researchers and practitioners have met these concerns by introducing an abundance of new datasets for evaluating and improving LLM safety.

Improving Adversarial Data Collection by Supporting Annotators: Lessons from GAHD, a German Hate Speech Dataset

1 code implementation28 Mar 2024 Janis Goldzycher, Paul Röttger, Gerold Schneider

Our experiments show that the resulting dataset is challenging even for state-of-the-art hate speech detection models, and that training on GAHD clearly improves model robustness.

Evaluating the Elementary Multilingual Capabilities of Large Language Models with MultiQ

1 code implementation6 Mar 2024 Carolin Holtermann, Paul Röttger, Timm Dill, Anne Lauscher

Therefore, in this paper, we investigate the basic multilingual capabilities of state-of-the-art open LLMs beyond their intended use.

Political Compass or Spinning Arrow? Towards More Meaningful Evaluations for Values and Opinions in Large Language Models

1 code implementation26 Feb 2024 Paul Röttger, Valentin Hofmann, Valentina Pyatkin, Musashi Hinck, Hannah Rose Kirk, Hinrich Schütze, Dirk Hovy

Motivated by this discrepancy, we challenge the prevailing constrained evaluation paradigm for values and opinions in LLMs and explore more realistic unconstrained evaluations.

SimpleSafetyTests: a Test Suite for Identifying Critical Safety Risks in Large Language Models

no code implementations14 Nov 2023 Bertie Vidgen, Nino Scherrer, Hannah Rose Kirk, Rebecca Qian, Anand Kannappan, Scott A. Hale, Paul Röttger

While some of the models do not give a single unsafe response, most give unsafe responses to more than 20% of the prompts, with over 50% unsafe responses in the extreme.

The Empty Signifier Problem: Towards Clearer Paradigms for Operationalising "Alignment" in Large Language Models

no code implementations3 Oct 2023 Hannah Rose Kirk, Bertie Vidgen, Paul Röttger, Scott A. Hale

In this paper, we address the concept of "alignment" in large language models (LLMs) through the lens of post-structuralist socio-political theory, specifically examining its parallels to empty signifiers.

Safety-Tuned LLaMAs: Lessons From Improving the Safety of Large Language Models that Follow Instructions

1 code implementation14 Sep 2023 Federico Bianchi, Mirac Suzgun, Giuseppe Attanasio, Paul Röttger, Dan Jurafsky, Tatsunori Hashimoto, James Zou

Training large language models to follow instructions makes them perform better on a wide range of tasks and generally become more helpful.

XSTest: A Test Suite for Identifying Exaggerated Safety Behaviours in Large Language Models

1 code implementation2 Aug 2023 Paul Röttger, Hannah Rose Kirk, Bertie Vidgen, Giuseppe Attanasio, Federico Bianchi, Dirk Hovy

In this paper, we introduce a new test suite called XSTest to identify such eXaggerated Safety behaviours in a systematic way.

The Ecological Fallacy in Annotation: Modelling Human Label Variation goes beyond Sociodemographics

1 code implementation20 Jun 2023 Matthias Orlikowski, Paul Röttger, Philipp Cimiano, Dirk Hovy

To account for sociodemographics in models of individual annotator behaviour, we introduce group-specific layers to multi-annotator models.

Personalisation within bounds: A risk taxonomy and policy framework for the alignment of large language models with personalised feedback

no code implementations9 Mar 2023 Hannah Rose Kirk, Bertie Vidgen, Paul Röttger, Scott A. Hale

Large language models (LLMs) are used to generate content for a wide range of tasks, and are set to reach a growing audience in coming years due to integration in product interfaces like ChatGPT or search engines like Bing.

Data-Efficient Strategies for Expanding Hate Speech Detection into Under-Resourced Languages

1 code implementation20 Oct 2022 Paul Röttger, Debora Nozza, Federico Bianchi, Dirk Hovy

More data is needed, but annotating hateful content is expensive, time-consuming and potentially harmful to annotators.

Multilingual HateCheck: Functional Tests for Multilingual Hate Speech Detection Models

1 code implementation NAACL (WOAH) 2022 Paul Röttger, Haitham Seelawi, Debora Nozza, Zeerak Talat, Bertie Vidgen

To help address this issue, we introduce Multilingual HateCheck (MHC), a suite of functional tests for multilingual hate speech detection models.

Temporal Adaptation of BERT and Performance on Downstream Document Classification: Insights from Social Media

2 code implementations Findings (EMNLP) 2021 Paul Röttger, Janet B. Pierrehumbert

Token-level analysis shows that temporal adaptation captures event-driven changes in language use in the downstream task, but not those changes that are actually relevant to task performance.
