Improving instruction hierarchy in frontier LLMs

This post introduces IH-Challenge, a training approach that improves instruction hierarchy in large language models.

• •IH-Challenge trains models to correctly prioritize instructions based on their level of trust
• •The approach improves safety steerability, making models more responsive to legitimate safety-related guidance
• •It enhances resistance to prompt injection attacks by teaching models to distinguish trusted from untrusted instructions
• •The method targets a core alignment challenge: ensuring frontier LLMs follow the intended instruction hierarchy
