A Three-Branch Checks-and-Balances Frameworkfor Context-Aware Ethical Alignment of Large Language Models

Chang, Edward Y.

This paper introduces a three-branch checks-and-balances framework for ethical alignment of Large Language Models (LLMs), inspired by governmental systems. It implements three independent yet interacting components: LLMs as the executive branch for knowledge generation, DIKE as the legislative branch establishing ethical guardrails, and ERIS as the judicial branch for contextual interpretation. The adversarial DIKE-ERIS duality enables adaptation to diverse cultural contexts while upholding consistent ethical principles. This architecture addresses limitations of reinforcement learning with human feedback (RLHF) by providing interpretable, adaptable, and culturally-aware ethical reasoning. Through self-supervised learning and adversarial testing, our framework demonstrates how emotional modeling can guide linguistic behaviors toward ethical outcomes while preserving independence across knowledge generation, ethical oversight, and contextual interpretation.


Modeling Emotions and Ethics with Large Language Models

This paper explores the integration of human-like emotions and ethical considerations into Large Language Models (LLMs). We first model eight fundamental human emotions, presented as opposing pairs, and employ collaborative LLMs to reinterpret and express these emotions across a spectrum of intensity. Our focus extends to embedding a latent ethical dimension within LLMs, guided by a novel self-supervised learning algorithm with human feedback (SSHF). This approach enables LLMs to perform self-evaluations and adjustments concerning ethical guidelines, enhancing their capability to generate content that is not only emotionally resonant but also ethically aligned. The methodologies and case studies presented herein illustrate the potential of LLMs to transcend mere text and image generation, venturing into the realms of empathetic interaction and principled decision-making, thereby setting a new precedent in the development of emotionally aware and ethically conscious AI systems.


Integrating Emotional and Linguistic Models for Ethical Compliance in Large Language Models

This research develops advanced methodologies for Large Language Models (LLMs) to better manage linguistic behaviors related to emotions and ethics. We introduce DIKE, an adversarial framework that enhances the LLMs' ability to internalize and reflect global human values, adapting to varied cultural contexts to promote transparency and trust among users. The methodology involves detailed modeling of emotions, classification of linguistic behaviors, and implementation of ethical guardrails. Our innovative approaches include mapping emotions and behaviors using self-supervised learning techniques, refining these guardrails through adversarial reviews, and systematically adjusting outputs to ensure ethical alignment. This framework establishes a robust foundation for AI systems to operate with ethical integrity and cultural sensitivity, paving the way for more responsible and context-aware AI interactions.
