Truth is Universal: Robust Detection of Lies in LLMs

Understand

Large Language Models (LLMs) have revolutionised natural language processing, exhibiting impressive human-like capabilities.

• In particular, LLMs are capable of "lying", knowingly outputting false statements.
• Hence, it is of interest and importance to develop methods to detect when LLMs lie.
• Indeed, several authors trained classifiers to detect LLM lies based on their internal model activations.
