SUMMARY:ASSET Seminar: "Controlling Language Models"
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: \nControlling language models is key to unlocking their full potential and making them useful for downstream tasks. Successfully deploying these models often requires both task-specific customization and rigorous auditing of their behavior. In this talk\, I will begin by introducing a customization method called Prefix-Tuning\, which adapts language models by updating only 0.1% of their parameters. Next\, I will address the need for robust auditing by presenting a Frank-Wolfe-inspired algorithm for red-teaming language models\, which provides a principled framework for discovering diverse failure modes. Finally\, I will rethink the root cause of these control challenges\, and propose a new generative model for text\, called Diffusion-LM\, which is controllable by design. \nZoom Link (if unable to attend in-person): https://upenn.zoom.us/j/93867005722
