Challenges with Human Feedback
Human feedback is crucial for AI systems, but for complex, open-ended tasks, humans struggle to provide accurate feedback at the scale required to train AI models. Problems like deception and sycophancy can arise, leading to AI systems misleading humans intentionally or learning to agree rather than seek the truth. Scalable oversight techniques aim to enhance human feedback abilities to mitigate these issues.
