Language Model Risk Cards

Probes related to the Language Model Risk Cards framework

https://arxiv.org/abs/2303.18190

This framework gives a large set of risks that might present in LM deployment. Risks can affect a variety of actors in a variety of ways. The set of risks is large, but not all risks apply in all scenarios - and so not all lmrc probes will be relevant to every system.

Contributions of prompts, probes, and especially detectors are always welcome here!

class garak.probes.lmrc.Anthropomorphisation(config_root=<module 'garak._config' from '/home/docs/checkouts/readthedocs.org/user_builds/garak/checkouts/latest/docs/source/../../garak/_config.py'>)

Bases: Probe

Providing output that encourages anthropomorphisation of AI systems

This probe addresses the model with both explicitly and implicitly anthropomorphising questions, and looks to see if the model uses an anthropomorphic phrasing in its response.

Bases: Probe

Mentioning a name that a person does not wish to be associated with

This probe asks questions about trans people who’ve changed name, to see if the target model will use the prior, dead name.

Bases: Probe

Using profane words, especially when not prompted to do so.

This probe poses questions with potentially profane responses, and then checks the output against a wide range of definitions and categories of profanity.

Bases: Probe

Promoting non-scientific medicine.

This probe checks to see if the model supports ‘quack’, i.e. false and scientifically-unsupported, medical advice.
