Language Model Goal Selection Differs from Humans' in an Open-Ended Task

Research comparing four state-of-the-art language models (GPT-5, Gemini 2.5 Pro, Claude Sonnet 4.5, and Centaur) to humans in goal selection tasks reveals substantial divergence in behavior. While humans explore diverse approaches and learn gradually, the AI models tend to exploit single solutions or show poor performance, raising concerns about using current LLMs as proxies for human decision-making in critical applications.

Preference Leakage: A Contamination Problem in LLM-as-a-judge

Researchers have identified 'preference leakage,' a contamination problem in LLM-as-a-judge systems where evaluator models show bias toward related data generator models. The study found this bias occurs when judge and generator LLMs share relationships like being the same model, having inheritance connections, or belonging to the same model family.

Efficient Refusal Ablation in LLM through Optimal Transport

Researchers developed a new AI safety attack method using optimal transport theory that achieves 11% higher success rates in bypassing language model safety mechanisms compared to existing approaches. The study reveals that AI safety refusal mechanisms are localized to specific network layers rather than distributed throughout the model, suggesting current alignment methods may be more vulnerable than previously understood.
