Researchers have introduced SaFeR-Steer, a novel framework designed to enhance the safety and helpfulness of multi-turn Large Language Models (LLMs). This progressive alignment approach utilizes synthetic bootstrapping and a tutor-in-the-loop reinforcement learning technique to train models under adaptive attacks, addressing the mismatch between single-turn training data and real-world multi-turn deployments. The framework also incorporates a Trajectory-Consistent Summative Reward (TCSR) to penalize any low-quality turn within a dialogue. Experiments show significant improvements in safety and helpfulness across various benchmarks when applied to Qwen2.5-VL models. AI
