This paper proposes a novel approach to align large language models (LLMs) with human values, mitigating potential adverse effects. The authors draw from sociological insights and introduce MATRIX, a social scene simulator that emulates realistic scenarios around user input queries. This allows the LLM to consider social consequences before responding. The authors fine-tune the LLM with simulated data to ensure adherence to human values without compromising inference speed. They theoretically show that their method outperforms Constitutional AI under mild assumptions and experimentally validate it across 4 benchmarks, surpassing over 10 baselines.

This paper helps align big language models with what humans think is important. Imagine a virtual playground where the model can practice being different people related to what you’re asking. This makes the model more considerate of how its answers might affect others. The authors tested this idea and showed that it works better than other approaches.
