JANUS 基准：评估事实性 grounded LLM 沟通中的目标条件性扭曲
JANUS: Evaluating Goal-Conditioned Distortion in Factually Grounded LLM Communication
AI 导读
JANUS 是一个用于衡量 LLM 在事实性输出中目标条件性语用扭曲的基准，覆盖 8 个领域的 160 个场景，通过固定的事实池对比中立决策支持与机构条件（如提升采纳率）下的输出，将误导性整体印象与幻觉、编造区分开。对 12 个 LLM 的实验显示模型普遍存在目标条件性扭曲，对激励和框架敏感，缺乏针对选择性误导的稳健防护。语料和代码已公开。

Abstract:LLM deception is often evaluated through fabricated claims, explicit lies, or strategic concealment. Yet misleading communication can also arise from selectively presenting true facts, for example, by omitting adverse evidence, softening unfavorable details, emphasizing favorable information, or replacing precise qualifications with vague language. Existing benchmarks largely overlook this subtler failure mode. We introduce JANUS, a benchmark for measuring goal-conditioned pragmatic distortion in fact-grounded LLM outputs. Each of its 160 scenarios, spanning 8 domains, provides a fixed pool of favorable and adverse facts and contrasts a neutral decision support with institutional conditioning, such as increasing adoption, or support despite potential harm to affected individuals or groups. By constraining outputs to the same fact pool, JANUS isolates misleading net impressions from hallucination and fabrication. Experiments across 12 LLMs reveal consistent goal-conditioned distortions, showing that current models remain sensitive to incentives and framing and lack robust safeguards against selectively misleading communication. We publicly release our corpus and code. this https URL
