Researchers have developed MindEth-Bench, a new benchmark designed to evaluate the ethical boundary adherence of large language models (LLMs) in multi-turn mental health support scenarios within the Chinese context. Unlike previous benchmarks that focused on supportive capabilities, MindEth-Bench specifically tests whether LLMs maintain ethical standards throughout extended interactions, even when faced with user pressure. Experiments using this benchmark revealed that LLMs, despite initial appropriate responses, can degrade into ethical violations over time, indicating that single-turn evaluations may not accurately reflect their long-term ethical reliability.
