The presented paper proposes an innovative approach for aligning large language models by empowering application developers to tailor models to their specific needs and values. The authors introduce the Alignment Studio architecture, comprising three main components: Framers, Instructors, and Auditors, which work together to control model behavior. This framework enables developers to adjust a model to match company guidelines, social norms, laws, and other regulations in context. The paper demonstrates this approach with an example of aligning an internal-facing chatbot to business conduct standards.

The researchers developed a new way for people creating language models to make sure they follow the rules and behave nicely in different situations. They created a special system called Alignment Studio, which has three parts: Framers, Instructors, and Auditors. These parts work together to help developers customize a language model to fit their specific goals and values. For example, a company could use this system to make its internal chatbot follow the rules of what’s allowed in an office.
