From public health to AI safety: improving machine learning approaches by collecting, selecting, or reducing the need for high-quality data by Brauner, J

“…In the case of misuse, an attacker might use a wide range of types of LLM or lie-generation methods; obtaining a sufficiently diverse dataset to cover all situations is challenging. In the case of misalignment, the lies can be subtle, such as convincing but false text that plays to human biases; identifying a sufficient number of examples to build a dataset from can be difficult. …”
