New method uses response times to improve LLM alignment with diverse preferences

Researchers have developed a new method to improve the alignment of large language models with human preferences by incorporating response times into preference datasets. This approach addresses the limitation of standard methods that assume uniform preferences among labelers, which can distort the learned model policy. By modeling decisions using a Drift-Diffusion Model, the new technique can identify the population's average preference even with heterogeneous and anonymous feedback, outperforming existing baselines.
