Consistency Training Along the Transformer Stack 文章

arXiv:2606.05817v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Consistency training encourages models to behave similarly across different contexts, and has shown promise for reducing misalignment. We broaden the scope of consistency training in two ways. First, we introduce two new internal consistency targets: MLP Consistency Training (MLPCT), which matches post-activation MLP states, and Attention Consistency Training (AttCT), which matches per-head attention distributions. Second, we apply consistency training to four additional safety threats: persona in-context learning attacks, adversarial frustration, prefill attacks, and conditional misalignment. Across several models and threat settings, we find that consistency training reduces misalignment well beyond the sycophancy and jailbreak settings studied in prior work.
