Perez and colleagues: model-written behavioral evaluations

Contribution grade

Language-model evaluation design · Reusable scientific method, experimental result or historical framework

Reference score90,000Provisional editorial estimate of this exact contribution; its grade is assessed separately.

What changed

Generated and filtered language-model evaluation datasets with language models and human relevance checks, using them to identify scaling and training trends in behaviors such as sycophancy and stated preferences.

Scientific scope

Generated and filtered language-model evaluation datasets with language models and human relevance checks, using them to identify scaling and training trends in behaviors such as sycophancy and stated preferences. The assessed contribution is the evaluation resource and its design, not a model capability score. Answers to constructed questions are measured outputs, not proof of a model's private intentions or consciousness. Label agreement and dataset relevance do not guarantee coverage of all behaviors or validity outside the evaluated models.

Evidence

The linked original works support the scoped statement and contribution attribution. WRS has not independently replayed experiments or reconstructed a full mathematical proof. The assessed contribution is the evaluation resource and its design, not a model capability score. Answers to constructed questions are measured outputs, not proof of a model's private intentions or consciousness. Label agreement and dataset relevance do not guarantee coverage of all behaviors or validity outside the evaluated models.
