📰 ArXiv cs.AI
Learn how to align AI safety with crowd preferences using Reinforcement Learning from Human Feedback (RLHF)
Action Steps
- Collect crowd preference datasets to identify shared safety criteria
- Apply RLHF to discover implicit safety objectives beyond task completion
- Transfer learned safety criteria to downstream RL models
- Evaluate the safety alignment of the resulting models using metrics such as reward functions
- Refine the safety criteria by incorporating feedback from multiple users and iterations

Title: Implicit Safety Alignment from Crowd Preferences
Abstract:
arXiv:2605.21822v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Reinforcement Learning from Human Feedback (RLHF) can reveal implicit objectives such as safety considerations that go beyond task completion. In this work, we focus on the common safety criteria embedded in crowd preference datasets, where different users may express distinct preferences or objectives, yet follow similar safety principles. Our aim is to discover shared safety criteria from crowd preferences and then transfer them to downstream RL
