A Simple Yet Effective Method for Non-Refusing Context Relevant Fine-grained Safety Steering in LLMs

EMNLP 2025

Fine-tuning large language models (LLMs) to meet evolving safety policies is costly and impractical. Mechanistic interpretability enables inference-time control through latent activation steering, but its potential for precise, customizable safety adjustments remains underexplored. We propose SafeSt

AEGIS2.0: A Diverse AI Safety Dataset and Risks Taxonomy for Alignment of LLM Guardrails

NAACL 2025long

As Large Language Models (LLMs) and generative AI become increasingly widespread, concerns about content safety have grown in parallel. Currently, there is a clear lack of high-quality, human-annotated datasets that address the full spectrum of LLM-related safety risks and are usable for commercial…
