Yes feel free!

You can browse the raw outputs here https://www.phylliida.dev/modelwelfare/bailstudy/harmdatasetvis.html

(any of interest you can share by URL)

The data for that is hosted here

https://github.com/Phylliida/BailStudyData

that data is in a bit of a weird format, converted by

https://github.com/Phylliida/BailStudy/blob/main/bailstudy/oldCodePorting.py

And here's a gdrive of the data gathered by our BailStudy repo

Unsupervised Activation Steering: Find a steering vector that best represents any set of text data

I think for those cases you're better off using standard methods (multiple choice etc.), this technique is only useful when paired positive negative data is more difficult to create (like writing imitation).

Seems like this could be addressed by filtering out comments that use evidence or personal examples from your dataset.

If that’s too intense, filtering responses to remove personal examples and checking sources shouldn’t be too bad? But maybe you’d just end up with a model that tries to subvert the filter/draw misleading conclusions from sources instead of actually being helpful…

Attribution-based parameter decomposition

There are certain cases where pure gradient-based attributions predictably don't work (most notably when a softmax is saturated)

Do you have a source or writeup somewhere on this? (or do you mind explaining more/have some examples where this is true?) Is this issue actually something that comes up for modern day LLMs?

In my observations it works fine for the toy tasks people have tried it on. The challenge seems to be in interpreting the attributions, not issues with the attributions themselves.

In my experience gradient-based attributions (especially if you use integrated gradients) are almost identical to the attributions you get from ablating away each component. It’s kinda crazy but is the reason ppl use edge-attribution patching over older approaches like ACDC.

Look at page 15 of https://openreview.net/forum?id=lq7ZaYuwub (left is gradient attributions, right is attributions from ablating each component). This is for Mamba but I’ve observed similar things for transformers.

A cozy, eco-friendly gem in the city! Green Street Cafe is my new go-to spot for catching up with friends or enjoying a quiet afternoon with a good book. Their plant-based menu offers a delightful variety of options - I absolutely loved their vegan BLT and lavender latte. The only downside was the slightly slow service, but the staff was so warm and attentive that it hardly mattered. Can't wait to visit again!

Stopped by Green Street Cafe for a quick bite and was pleasantly surprised by the charming atmosphere and delicious food. The spinach and feta quiche was to die for, and the iced chai latte had just the right amount of spice. The place was buzzing with bees, which added a unique touch to the experience. Although the Wi-Fi was a bit spotty, I'd still recommend this spot for a relaxing break or casual meeting.

Green Street Cafe is my new favorite spot for brunch! The cafe's bright, inviting interior, complete with lush greenery and an eco-conscious design, makes for the perfect weekend retreat. I can't get enough of their avocado toast and freshly squeezed orange juice. The bees add a quirky touch, and their presence speaks to the cafe's commitment to sustainability. Fantastic service, too - the staff is always smiling and eager to help. Highly recommended!

While the Green Street Cafe has a charming ambiance and friendly staff, the food and drinks were a bit hit-or-miss. The honey lemonade was fantastic, but the cappuccino I ordered was lukewarm and lacked flavor. My wife enjoyed her quinoa salad, but my vegetable panini was soggy. The bees are an interesting touch, but they may not be for everyone. I might give this place another shot, but I'll temper my expectations next time.
