Data and Parameter Scaling Laws for Neural Machine Translation
We observe that the development cross-entropy loss of supervised neural machine translation models scales like a power law with the amount of training data and the number of non-embedding parameters in the model.
The Capacity for Moral Self-Correction in Large Language Models
We believe that at this level of scale, language models obtain two capabilities that they can use for moral self-correction: (1) they can follow instructions and (2) they can learn complex normative concepts of harm like stereotyping, bias, and discrimination.
Discovering Language Model Behaviors with Model-Written Evaluations
We also find some of the first examples of inverse scaling in RL from Human Feedback (RLHF), where more RLHF makes LMs worse.
Constitutional AI: Harmlessness from AI Feedback
In the RL phase, we sample from the finetuned model, use a model to evaluate which of the two samples is better, and then train a preference model from this dataset of AI preferences.
Measuring Progress on Scalable Oversight for Large Language Models
Developing safe and useful general-purpose AI systems will require us to make progress on scalable oversight: the problem of supervising systems that potentially outperform us on most skills relevant to the task at hand.
In-context Learning and Induction Heads
In this work, we present preliminary and indirect evidence for a hypothesis that induction heads might constitute the mechanism for the majority of all "in-context learning" in large transformer models (i. e. decreasing loss at increasing token indices).
Toy Models of Superposition
Neural networks often pack many unrelated concepts into a single neuron - a puzzling phenomenon known as 'polysemanticity' which makes interpretability much more challenging.
Red Teaming Language Models to Reduce Harms: Methods, Scaling Behaviors, and Lessons Learned
We provide our own analysis of the data and find a variety of harmful outputs, which range from offensive language to more subtly harmful non-violent unethical outputs.
Language Models (Mostly) Know What They Know
We study whether language models can evaluate the validity of their own claims and predict which questions they will be able to answer correctly.
Beyond the Imitation Game: Quantifying and extrapolating the capabilities of language models
BIG-bench focuses on tasks that are believed to be beyond the capabilities of current language models.
Scaling Laws and Interpretability of Learning from Repeated Data
To do this, we train a family of models where most of the data is unique but a small fraction of it is repeated many times.
Training a Helpful and Harmless Assistant with Reinforcement Learning from Human Feedback
We apply preference modeling and reinforcement learning from human feedback (RLHF) to finetune language models to act as helpful and harmless assistants.

A General Language Assistant as a Laboratory for Alignment
We find that the benefits from modest interventions increase with model size, generalize to a variety of alignment evaluations, and do not compromise the performance of large models.
Explaining Scaling Laws of Neural Network Generalization
In the large width limit, this can be equivalently obtained from the spectrum of certain kernels, and we present evidence that large width and large dataset resolution-limited scaling exponents are related by a duality.
Evaluating Large Language Models Trained on Code
We introduce Codex, a GPT language model fine-tuned on publicly available code from GitHub, and study its Python code-writing capabilities.

Explaining Neural Scaling Laws

Scaling Laws for Transfer
When we do the same for models pre-trained on a large language dataset, the slope in performance gains is merely reduced rather than going to zero.
Scaling Laws for Autoregressive Generative Modeling
The optimal model size also depends on the compute budget through a power-law, with exponents that are nearly universal across all data domains.
Language Models are Few-Shot Learners
By contrast, humans can generally perform a new language task from only a few examples or from simple instructions - something which current NLP systems still largely struggle to do.

A Neural Scaling Law from the Dimension of the Data Manifold
We confirm the theory by independently measuring the intrinsic dimension and the scaling exponents in a teacher/student framework, where we can study a variety of $d$ and $\alpha$ by dialing the properties of random teacher networks.
Scaling Laws for Neural Language Models
We study empirical scaling laws for language model performance on the cross-entropy loss.
An Empirical Model of Large-Batch Training
In an increasing number of domains it has been demonstrated that deep learning models can be trained using relatively large batch sizes without sacrificing data efficiency.
