Ghostbuster: Detecting Text Ghostwritten by Large Language Models

1 y ago (The Berkeley Artificial Intelligence Research Blog): The structure of Ghostbuster, our new state-of-the-art method for detecting AI-generated text. Large language models like ChatGPT write impressively well—so well, in fact, that they’ve become a problem. Students have begun using these models to ghostwrite assignments, leading some schools to ban ChatGPT. In addition, these models are also prone to producing text with factual errors, so wary readers may want to know if generative AI tools have been used to ghostwrite...

Asymmetric Certified Robustness via Feature-Convex Neural Networks

1 y ago (The Berkeley Artificial Intelligence Research Blog): Asymmetric Certified Robustness via Feature-Convex Neural Networks TLDR: We propose the asymmetric certified robustness problem, which requires certified robustness for only one class and reflects real-world adversarial scenarios. This focused setting allows us to introduce feature-convex classifiers, which produce closed-form and deterministic certified radii on the order of milliseconds. Figure 1. Illustration of feature-convex classifiers and their...

Goal Representations for Instruction Following

1 y ago (The Berkeley Artificial Intelligence Research Blog): Goal Representations for Instruction Following A longstanding goal of the field of robot learning has been to create generalist agents that can perform tasks for humans. Natural language has the potential to be an easy-to-use interface for humans to specify arbitrary tasks, but it is difficult to train robots to follow language instructions. Approaches like language-conditioned behavioral cloning (LCBC) train policies to directly imitate expert actions conditioned on language,...

Rethinking the Role of PPO in RLHF

1 y ago (The Berkeley Artificial Intelligence Research Blog): Rethinking the Role of PPO in RLHF TL;DR: In RLHF, there’s tension between the reward learning phase, which uses human preference in the form of comparisons, and the RL fine-tuning phase, which optimizes a single, non-comparative reward. What if we performed RL in a comparative way? Figure 1: This diagram illustrates the difference between reinforcement learning from absolute feedback and relative feedback. By incorporating a new component - pairwise...
