Large language models (LLMs) can "lie", which we define as outputting false statements despite "knowing" the truth in a demonstrable sense.

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 reasoning is a faithful explanation of the model's actual reasoning (i. e., its process for answering the question).

As large language models (LLMs) perform more difficult tasks, it becomes harder to verify the correctness and safety of their behavior.

But most computation and time is wasted on redundant and noisy points that are already learnt or not learnable.

We introduce Goldilocks Selection, a technique for faster model training which selects a sequence of training points that are "just right".
