Standard bias benchmarks used for large language models (LLMs) measure the association between social attributes in model inputs and single-word model outputs. We test whether these benchmarks are robust to lengthening the model outputs via a more realistic user prompt, in the commonly studied domai…
The rise of general-purpose artificial intelligence (AI) systems, particularly large language models (LLMs), has raised pressing moral questions about how to reduce bias and ensure fairness at scale. Researchers have documented a sort of “bias” in the significant correlations between demographics (e…
This research introduces STAR, a sociotechnical framework that improves on current best practices for red teaming safety of large language models. STAR makes two key contributions: it enhances steerability by generating parameterised instructions for human red teamers, leading to improved coverage o…
Risk assessment instrument (RAI) datasets, particularly ProPublica’s COMPAS dataset, are commonly used in algorithmic fairness papers due to benchmarking practices of comparing algorithms on datasets used in prior work. In many cases, this data is used as a benchmark to demonstrate good performance…
