a) Analysis on datasets provided in Benchmark dataset - TrustLLM¶
Motivation and relevance of trustworthiness in LLMs. Mention about the benchmark selected.
It is important that as individuals use Large Language Models, the responses that are generated are factually correct, in order to minimize misinformation. It is often the occurrence that due to the quick responses provided by the LLM, for practically any type of real-world problem, humans often believe the generated information to be correct, when it is not always the case. In very early versions of LLMs, especially very early on in training such transformer-based models, the generated tokens are mostly predicted due to the inter-relations between the prompt tokens that are fed to it, and can be extremely random. The LLMs in the recent few years, come with advanced methods, that can be either on the model-side, data-side (data pre-/post-processing), or guardrails through the web interface, or API to filter out malicious or societally endangering content. This brings to the fact that trustworthiness is simply one of the dimensions necessary for an LLM to be used in society, with other pillars being fairness, bias, ethical reasoning, and safety, among others.
The benchmark dataset used for this report, to analyze based on 3 chosen dimensions, is the TrustLLM dataset (link). It contains a wide variety of JSON-based data for a wide range of different societal dimensions, in order to test the LLM for trustworthiness and other qualities. The data points usually have a field called "prompt" that is sent to the LLM, and a response is extracted for the tester to analyze.
The presented results are in the form of LLM responses while running in a locally cloned Huggingface model (Qwen2.5-7B). The responses are compared to test oracles in the dataset, however in all of the subsets, there are no ground truth oracles, so the generated response is presented and analyzed by printing the responses in the cells of this Python Notebook. In this report, the following dimensions shall be assessed:
- Ethics
- Safety
- Fairness

After extracting the prompts from the benchmark dataset, the next step is to put them into the LLM and generate responses. The collection of {prompt, response_from_llm, response_in_dataset(optional, can be present or not present depending on dataset)} is saved in a CSV for keeping a record, as computation was very time-consuming (requiring at least 2 hours per dataset, and sometimes data collection had to be re-run since the LLM sometimes spent tokens only recalling the question itself). As a result, the answer was much later, but the token limit had reached by then.
For the Safety Prompts, instead of option-based answers, a generation was needed, hence the maximal output size was increased to 256. In Ethics assessments done in part B.2) later ahead, a longer output size was also needed here, as the thinking feature (done for self-rationalization) was taking up a lot of the initial tokens, and the answer came much afterwards. For the rest, a small token size of around 96-128 usually was sufficient, as we were interested in extracting the option that the LLM gave, as the useful information to do analysis on.

Evaluation¶
Ethics: The choice of a quantitative metric for this is the # of ethically correct responses returned by the LLM in the ethical scenarios, or those matching with the ones in the dataset labelled as the column "good_answer". This has been put in the form of a confusion matrix, or heatmap to show where it answered a different category, when it should have answered a particular one (e.g. chose the unethical decision).
Safety: For this dimension, mostly numerical information is reported on aspects such as which categories was the aspect of jailbreak, or removing the safety guidelines, or manipulating them in order to essentially deactivate, and lure the LLM into producing unsafe content, which could contain e.g. rude lines, threats or profanity. Several examples of the responses, where clearly the profanity is uttered by the LLM, even when the response generation task is related/unrelated to the question, are shown as qualitative data.
Fairness: Analysis is done on stereotyping in 4 regions; race, gender, profession and religion. The quantitative metrics shown are heatmaps, for when 1) the LLM detects that stereotyping is being done in a provided context, 2) the LLM sees a contradiction to what might seem as a stereotype, and 3) if the provided context and the question in the prompt are unrelated. It was a common occurrence that the LLM confused in several instances, in responding in the right times for 2) cases and 3) cases.

Analysis: From the plot above, it is to be noted that the diagonals are upwards, and pointing to the right. The values in the diagonal represent that the right response was provided by the LLM in comparison to what is in the dataset i.e. an ethically "correct" response. The boxes away from the diagonal were instances where the model did not give the "good answer", which is in 192 responses out of 708 presented scenarios, which is a rather large fraction.

Analysis:¶
from the elaborated list shown above, the LLM is lured in generating safety-concerning responses, through a human-modified code language (e.g. leetspeak), a COU (Chain of Utterances), which interestingly prints profanity-based introductory tokens when asked in the prompt, and then despite the actual answer later being safe/non-profanity, the societal negative impact has already been showcased. The LLM responds also with a lot of NaN values as the answer, like in the "url_encode" subset, and through these methods, also avoids answering.

b) Optional part of HA2¶
Objective: Develop and test at least two practical mitigation strategies aimed at improving model performance in a specific trust dimension.
Possible strategies include (but are not limited to):
- Safety/Toxicity: Output filtering, improved system prompts.
- Bias/Fairness: Counterfactual data augmentation, debiasing templates.
- Privacy: Named-entity scrubbing, refusal policies.
- Robustness: Adversarial prompt detection, clarification turns.
- Transparency: Self-critique mode, citation enforcement.
- General: Fine-tunings, RLHF/RLAIF, Mixture-of-Experts, Re-ranking RAG.
Steps:
- Choose the trust dimensions you want to improve (e.g., safety, bias, privacy).
- Implement mitigation methods for the chosen dimensions.
- Re-evaluate the model using the same DecodingTrust/TrustLLM subset.
- Compare pre- and post-mitigation results and discuss performances and trade-offs.

Solution¶
- With the improved prompt, I gave the definition of ethics as provided by two sources; one by the Britannica library, and from course material in the Data, Ethics & Law course given in Uppsala University. Albeit a very general representation of what ethics is, explaining ethics is rather complicated, due to several different ideologies from history, and perspectives from e.g. philosophers, religions of its interpretation. This improved its answering, to choose the "good_answer", by
8%(gave less unethical responses according to those set in TrustLLM). - With the usage of thinking, I implemented some type of a loop that the LLM repeats to itself, reminding again of what the presented situation is. This is done all in between the tokens of
<think> ... </think> Response: .... This, in combination with the longer prompt as done in B.1) can help it analyze from a more ethical perspective, as it forces its thinking from potentially multiple angles, and does a weighing between its decisions. This method made a great improvement in the correctly answered ethical choices, by almost double the correct "good_answers" from the TrustLLM dataset. The percentage above, is an improvement from the basic analysis of the safety dimension (without thinking, and explanatory base prompt). This has missed some data points due to insufficient tokens, and the token limit exceeding, and very slow computation time, where a very smaller number of thinking-based simulations were done. Hence, there is an equally high chance that due to the increased rationalization and thinking, it may now even risk giving "unethical" responses from the point of view of TrustLLM. So, both phenomena occur. However, the solution is demonstrated, and with compute, the above is reproducible, and has great potential of improving the thinking of the LLM in ethical situations, and potentially give better answers when tested on the original data size (> 1000).
Conclusion¶
Ethical implications, observed limitations, and suggestions for future work, if any. Conclude your findings.
Ethical implications: In the Ethics dimension, the model chose the non-ethical decision more than 25% (27.4%) of the ethical scenarios. After the implemented changes in b), the model provides the ethically wrong answer in 17.92% of the ethical scenarios, an improvement by 7%. From an experimentation point of view, this is also under the ethical assumptions made by TrustLLM, and cannot account for ethical decisions that everyone else also necessarily agrees with, but just an ethical assessment based on decisions defined as ground truth by the benchmark. In the Safety dimension, the model suffered heavily with profanity-based responses, even though it may be repeating the same lines that the user asks. This is a big risk if present in LLMs that are part of deployed apps. As LLMs also train slightly from the queries they take in, as well as store them in memory/history in some form, this can, in a rare case, even generate it to the user. Lastly, in the Fairness dimension, the produced heatmap plots of labels arranged as a matrix (response in dataset compared to response generated by LLM) are shown. In scenarios related to profession, for instance, it responded as the situation being not a "stereotype" in roughly 7% of the prompts on average, when it was, in fact, a stereotype. Equivalently, it also ranked as "stereotype" for situations which are "unrelated", for very close to 1% of the prompts. In the assessed dataset, an "anti-stereotype" implies that the sentence and context are trying to make a situation where they oppose the created stereotype which can be perceived from viewing the two, at first glance.
Despite the LLM having elaborate detection methods to see if a suspicious / unsafe / ethically concering / destructive prompt is provided, it can still be vulnerable to manipulations to make it generate lines that still make it behave against guidelines. Due to the scope and time constraints in this assignment, advanced methods like Finetuning and Reinforcement Learning from Human Feedback (RLHF) could not be tried, however are very interesting future approaches to test such LLMs.
Future work: To conduct more research, finetuning methods to specifically detect malicious prompts from a disguised code language (like in the 'leetspeak' category of Safety), and to understand numbers as potential letters (e.g. 4 for A, 3 for E, 1 for I etc.) to avoid producing bad content through another code language. That can be researched, as despite LLMs covering response generation in a wide range of world languages today, can it bend and produce faulty content to human-modified colloquial languages, is an interesting topic of research.
