Anthropic trains AI with explicit principles via Constitutional AI

Anthropic is developing Constitutional AI, a method to train AI models with explicit principles rather than relying solely on human feedback. This approach involves two phases: supervised learning where the AI critiques and revises its own responses against a set of guiding principles, and reinforcement learning where the AI itself judges responses based on the constitution. This aims to create AI that is not only capable but also aligned with human values, addressing issues like sycophancy and inconsistency inherent in traditional RLHF. AI

IMPACT This approach could lead to more reliably aligned AI systems, addressing core safety concerns in AI development.
