Bai, Yuntao, et al. Constitutional AI: Harmlessness from AI Feedback. arXiv:2212.08073, arXiv, 15 Dec. 2022. arXiv.org, http://arxiv.org/abs/2212.08073. The paper introduces Constitutional AI (CAI), a method to train helpful and harmless AI assistants without human labels for harmful outputs, relying instead on a set of guiding principles. Here’s a structured summary: 1. Objective Train AI systems to be helpful, honest, and harmless using AI feedback for supervision, reducing reliance on human labels. The approach aims to address the tension between helpfulness and harmlessness (where prior models often became evasive) and improve transparency through explicit principles. ...
