Chasing Moving Targets with Online Self-Play Reinforcement Learning for Safer Language Models

ICML 2026poster

Conventional large language model (LLM) safety alignment relies on a reactive, disjoint loop: attackers exploit a static model, then defenders patch exposed vulnerabilities. This sequential setup leads to attackers overfitting obsolete exploits while defenders perpetually lag behind emerging threats…

Improving Human-AI Coordination through Online Adversarial Training and Generative Models

ICLR 2026poster

Being able to cooperate with diverse humans is an important component of many economically valuable AI tasks, from household robotics to autonomous driving. However, generalizing to novel humans requires training on data that captures the diversity of human behaviors. Adversarial training is a promi…

Cross-environment Cooperation Enables Zero-shot Multi-agent Coordination

ICML 2025oral

Zero-shot coordination (ZSC), the ability to adapt to a new partner in a cooperative task, is a critical component of human-compatible AI. While prior work has focused on training agents to cooperate on a single task, these specialized models do not generalize to new tasks, even if they are highly s…

Learning to Cooperate with Humans using Generative Agents

NeurIPS 2024poster

Training agents that can coordinate zero-shot with humans is a key mission in multi-agent reinforcement learning (MARL). Current algorithms focus on training simulated human partner policies which are then used to train a Cooperator agent. The simulated human is produced either through behavior clon…
