The field of large language model (LLM) safety is advancing through innovative approaches that target internal mechanisms of toxicity and harmful content generation. Recent research has introduced frameworks that localize and suppress toxicity within model architectures, enhancing safety without extensive retraining. Techniques such as language-agnostic semantic alignment and internal representation analysis are being employed to improve safety across diverse languages and contexts. Additionally, new methods for detecting harmful content leverage internal features of models, providing efficient and effective solutions. These developments are crucial for builders aiming to deploy LLMs in real-world applications, ensuring that safety measures are robust and adaptable to various scenarios, thereby fostering trust and reliability in AI systems.

Large language models (LLMs) often demonstrate strong safety performance in high-resource languages, yet exhibit severe vulnerabilities when queried in low-resource languages. We attribute this gap to...
Large language models frequently generate toxic, hateful, or harmful content, yet existing mitigation methods rely on costly retraining or output-level filtering with no mechanistic insight into where...
Guard models are widely used to detect harmful content in user prompts and LLM responses. However, state-of-the-art guard models rely solely on terminal-layer representations and overlook the rich saf...
Safety alignment in Large Language Models (LLMs) remains highly fragile during fine-tuning, where even benign adaptation can degrade pre-trained refusal behaviors and enable harmful responses. Existin...
Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly explored as scalable tools for mental health counseling, yet evaluating their safety remains challenging due to the interactional and context-dependent na...
Recent work has shown that a model's input word embeddings can serve as effective control variables for steering its behavior toward outputs that satisfy desired properties. However, this has only bee...
Fine-tuning large language models often undermines their safety alignment, a problem further amplified by harmful fine-tuning attacks in which adversarial data removes safeguards and induces unsafe be...
Current safety alignment methods encode safe behavior implicitly within model parameters, creating a fundamental opacity: we cannot easily inspect why a model refuses a request, nor intervene when its...
Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly deployed in a wide range of applications, yet remain vulnerable to adversarial jailbreak attacks that circumvent their safety guardrails. Existing evaluat...
Large language models (LLMs) often require fine-tuning (FT) to perform well on downstream tasks, but FT can induce safety-alignment drift even when the training dataset contains only benign data. Prio...
