Who Benefits from RAG? The Role of Exposure, Utility and Attribution Bias
π€AI Summary
Research reveals that Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) systems exhibit fairness issues, with queries from certain demographic groups systematically receiving higher accuracy than others. The study identifies three key factors affecting fairness: group exposure in retrieved documents, utility of group-specific documents, and attribution bias in how generators use different group documents.
Key Takeaways
- βRAG systems amplify accuracy disparities across different demographic groups compared to LLM-only systems.
- βGroup exposure, utility, and attribution bias are key factors determining fairness in RAG implementations.
- βThe research used TREC 2022 Fair Ranking Track datasets to evaluate fairness across four categories.
- βRAG systems suffer from systematic query group fairness problems that need to be addressed.
- βThe study provides publicly available data and code for further fairness research in RAG systems.
