Apple Machine Learning Research has introduced Annotator Policy Models (APMs), a novel method for understanding disagreements in AI safety annotations. These interpretable models learn annotators' internal safety policies directly from their labeling behavior, eliminating the need for additional explanation from annotators. APMs can accurately model annotator safety policies, predict responses to counterfactual edits, and identify sources of disagreement such as operational failures, policy ambiguity, or value pluralism. This approach supports more targeted and transparent AI safety policy design by making annotator reasoning visible and comparable. AI
IMPACT Provides a method to improve AI safety policy design by revealing annotator reasoning without additional annotation effort.
