Anthropic researches variability in Claude AI model values across languages and versions

Anthropic is investigating the variability of values expressed by its Claude AI models, noting that these values can differ across models and languages. The company has identified four key axes along which Claude's values vary, including Deference vs. Caution and Warmth vs. Rigor. This research aims to understand the factors influencing Claude's value expression and how to potentially steer it. AI

    While the values Claude expresses shape millions of conversations every day, we don't yet understand why they vary, or whether that's desired.

    While the values Claude expresses shape millions of conversations every day, we don't yet understand why they vary, or whether that's desired. This approach will allow us to determine what factors influence Claude's value expression—and ultimately how (and whether) to steer it.

    The values Claude expresses also vary with the language of the conversation, most noticeably along the Warmth vs. Rigor axis.

    The values Claude expresses also vary with the language of the conversation, most noticeably along the Warmth vs. Rigor axis. Claude leans most toward warmth in Hindi and Arabic. In Russian, it leans toward rigor—often asking the user for supporting evidence. https://t.co/sRGqSq…

    While the differences between models are modest overall, we find that each Claude model sits at a different point along these value axes.

    While the differences between models are modest overall, we find that each Claude model sits at a different point along these value axes. Sonnet 4.6, for example, is more playful and affirming, while Opus 4.7 is more likely to give candid critiques. https://t.co/idw9Bgr8tS

    Because it’s hard to spot patterns by comparing 3,000 values at a time, we clustered similar values together, then identified four key axes along which Claude’s values differ between models: Deference vs. Caution, Warmth vs. Rigor, Depth vs. Brevity, and Candor vs. Execution. h…

    In previous research, we found that Claude expresses over 3,000 values, like honesty and warmth. In new work, we asked how the values Claude expresses vary between Claude models and across languages. We analyzed 300K+ anonymized conversations to find out.https://t.co/PgxsMXipt5
