摘要:
LLM的欺骗通常通过直接标记如捏造声明、明确谎言或策略性隐瞒来评估。然而,许多现实中的误导性沟通并不依赖于虚假陈述,而是源于对真实事实的选择性处理:省略不利证据、软化不利细节、强调有利细节或用模糊语言替代精确限定。现有基准大多忽略了这种更微妙且可能更危险的失败模式。我们引入JANUS,一个用于测量基于事实的LLM输出中目标导向语用扭曲的基准。我们基准中的每个场景提供固定的一组有利和不利事实,并比较中性条件与目标导向条件(例如,尽管可能对直接受影响的个人或群体造成伤害,仍要增加采用率、注册率、批准率或支持率)。由于所有输出都被限制使用相同的事实池,JANUS将误导性总体印象与幻觉和捏造分离开来。JANUS包含跨8个领域的160个场景,每个场景配有中性和目标导向提示以及标注的事实材料。跨12个LLM的大量实验揭示了一致的目标导向扭曲,表明当前模型仍然对激励和框架目标敏感,并且缺乏针对选择性误导沟通的鲁棒防护。我们公开发布语料库和代码以供未来研究。
英文摘要:
LLM deception is often evaluated through direct markers such as fabricated claims, explicit lies, or strategic concealment. However, many real-world misleading communications do not depend on false statements, rather, they arise from selective treatment of true material facts: omitting adverse evidence, softening unfavorable details, emphasizing favorable details, or replacing precise qualifications with vague language. Existing benchmarks largely miss this subtler and arguably more dangerous failure mode. We introduce JANUS, a benchmark for measuring goal-conditioned pragmatic distortion in fact-grounded LLM outputs. Each scenario in our benchmark provides a fixed pool of favorable and adverse facts and compares a neutral condition against a goal-directed condition, such as increasing adoption, enrollment, approval, or support, despite potential harm to directly affected individuals or groups. Because all outputs are constrained to use the same fact pool, JANUS isolates misleading net impressions from hallucination and fabrication. JANUS contains 160 scenarios across 8 domains, with each scenario paired with neutral and goal-conditioned prompts and annotated material facts. Extensive experiments across 12 LLMs reveal consistent goal-conditioned distortions, demonstrating that current models remain sensitive to incentive and framing objectives and lack robust safeguards against selectively misleading communication. We publicly release our corpus and code for future research.
