New benchmark P3Bench tackles personalized privacy in LLMs

Researchers have introduced a new benchmark called P3Bench to address personalized privacy control in large language models (LLMs). This benchmark extends contextual privacy policies to include user-specific disclosure preferences, recognizing that acceptable information disclosure can vary significantly between individuals even within the same context. Experiments revealed that prompt-based policies are unreliable for enforcing these personalized privacy settings, with models like Qwen2.5-7B and Gemma3-4B demonstrating high rates of policy ignorance. To overcome this, a novel inference-time method called Repair was developed, which uses attention head intervention to guide the LLM's disclosure behavior towards user-defined privacy policies. AI

IMPACT This research could lead to more robust LLM privacy controls, enabling safer deployment of agentic AI systems that handle sensitive user data.

    Personalized Privacy Control in LLMs via Attention Head Intervention

    arXiv:2608.21209v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The rise of agentic AI enables LLMs to access diverse user data, raising critical privacy concerns. Prior work on contextual privacy studies whether LLMs regulate information disclosure according to context-dependent norms. However,…
