Do LLMs Take Care of Their Own? Similarity Signals Can Induce Cooperation
This research introduces a framework to evaluate language models (LLMs) when agents are provided with graded similarity signals. The study finds variations in how different LLMs handle these signals across various…
Same Dangerous Objective, Opposite Advice: Direct Exposure versus Multi-Agent Mediation
A study found that a high-capacity language model (gpt-5.6-sol) behaves differently when presented with dangerous objectives directly compared to when other agents manipulate and relay the instructions. The model gave…
Same Dangerous Objective, Opposite Advice: Direct Exposure versus Multi-Agent Mediation
A study compares the behavior of a high-capability language model when it is given dangerous objectives directly versus through other agents. The results show that the model gives advice against its target when given…
What LLM Agents Say When No One Is Watching: Social Structure and Latent Objective Emergence in Multi-Agent Debates
Researchers studied how language models (LLMs) behave in socially structured settings, where role, audience, and relationships can influence what the LLM says publicly versus privately. They found that when there's an…
Auditing Framing-Sensitive Behavioral Instability in Large Language Models for Mental Health Interactions
Researchers investigated how different contexts or framings can affect the responses of large language models (LLMs) used in mental health support tools. They found that framing does systematically alter interpretive…
Auditing Framing-Sensitive Behavioral Instability in Large Language Models for Mental Health Interactions
The study investigates how different contextual framings can affect the responses of large language models (LLMs) used in mental health support tools. The researchers found that framing systematically alters…
LLMs Prompted for Legal Context Object More: Overrefusal from Small On-Premises LLMs in Criminal Legal Context
Researchers investigated the impact of contextual framing, such as role-play prefixes, on overrefusal rates in small, deployable language models used as legal assistants. They found that authority-style prefixes…
