A new benchmark called Pak3H1 has been developed to evaluate the cultural alignment of large language models (LLMs) in Urdu. This human-validated suite addresses the limitations of existing multilingual benchmarks, which often rely on automated translation and fail to capture local relevance. Evaluations using Pak3H1 revealed significant cross-lingual alignment gaps, showing declines in helpfulness, breakdowns in harmlessness guardrails against regional risks, and reduced honesty metrics due to localized factual constraints. The findings highlight the need for human-guided localization in LLM alignment for equitable multilingual evaluation. AI
