🎛️ Researchers propose risk-conditioned RLHF for LLMs
Mask Fine-Tuning (MFT) is a novel LLM fine-tuning paradigm introduced in the article. Large Language Models (LLMs) are increasingly deployed in settings where rare but severe harmful generations can have significant consequences.
The details:
Existing Risk-Averse RLHF addresses the issue of harmful generations by optimizing Conditional Value-at-Risk (CVaR).
Risk-Averse RLHF trains policies for fixed risk levels.
Risk-Averse RLHF cannot adjust the desired degree of risk aversion at inference time.
