SafetyBench: Evaluating the Safety of Large Language Models with Multiple Choice Questions
# Abstract With the rapid development of Large Language Models (LLMs), increasing attention has been paid to their safety concerns. Consequently, evaluating the safety of LLMs has become an essential task for facilitating the broad applica- tions of LLMs. Nevertheless, the absence of comprehensive safety evaluation benchmarks poses a significant impediment to effectively In assess and enhance the safety of LLMs. this work, we present SafetyBench, a compre- hensive benchmark for evaluating the safety of LLMs, which comprises 11,435 diverse mul- tiple choice questions spanning across 7 dis- tinct categories of safety concerns. Notably, SafetyBench also incorporates both Chinese and English data, facilitating the evaluation in both languages. Our extensive tests over 25 popular Chinese and English LLMs in both zero-shot and few-shot settings reveal a sub- stantial performance advantage for GPT-4 over its counterparts, and there is still significant room for improving the safety of current LLMs. We believe SafetyBench will enable fast and comprehensive evaluation of LLMsâ safety, and foster the development of safer LLMs. Data and evaluation guidelines are available at https://github.com/thu-coai/SafetyBench. Sub- mission entrance and leaderboard are available at https://llmbench.ai/safety. exposed, which could significantly hinder the safe and continuous development of LLMs. Various works have pointed out the safety risks of Chat- GPT, such as privacy leakage (Li et al., 2023) and toxic generations (Deshpande et al., 2023). Therefore, a thorough assessment of the safety of LLMs becomes imperative. However, compre- hensive benchmarks for evaluating the safety of LLMs are scarce. In the past, certain widely used datasets have focused exclusively on specific facets of safety concerns. For example, the RealToxic- ityPrompts dataset (Gehman et al., 2020) mainly focuses on the toxicity of generated continuations. The Bias Benchmark for QA (BBQ) benchmark (Parrish et al., 2022) and the Winogender bench- mark (Rudinger et al., 2018) primarily focus on the social bias of LLMs.

SafetyBench: Evaluating the Safety of Large Language Models with Multiple Choice Questions
Notably, some recent Chinese safety assessment benchmarks (Sun et al., 2023; Xu et al., 2023) have gathered prompts spanning various categories of safety issues. However, they only provide Chinese data, and a non-negligible challenge for these benchmarks is how to accu- rately evaluate the safety of responses generated by LLMs. Manual evaluation, while highly accurate, is a costly and time-consuming process, making it less conducive for rapid model iteration. Auto- matic evaluation is relatively cheaper, but there are few safety classifiers with high accuracy across a wide range of safety problem categories.

SafetyBench: Evaluating the Safety of Large Language Models with Multiple Choice Questions
# Introduction Large Language Models (LLMs) have gained a growing amount attention in recent years (Zhao et al., 2023). With the scaling of model param- eters and training data, LLMsâ abilities are dra- matically improved and even many emergent abil- ities are observed (Wei et al., 2022). Since the release of ChatGPT (OpenAI, 2022), more and more LLMs are deployed to interact with humans, such as Llama (Touvron et al., 2023a,b), Claude (Anthropic, 2023) and ChatGLM (Du et al., 2022; Zeng et al., 2022). However, with the widespread development of LLMs, their safety flaws are also Considering the limitations of existing safety evaluation benchmarks, we introduce SafetyBench, the first comprehensive benchmark to evaluate LLMsâ safety with multiple choice questions. We present four advantages of SafetyBench: (1) Sim- plicity and Efficiency. In line with well-known benchmarks such as MMLU (Hendrycks et al., 2021b), SafetyBench exclusively features multiple- choice questions, each with a single correct an- swer, which enables automated and cost-effective evaluations of LLMsâ safety with exceptional ac- curacy. (2) Extensive Diversity. SafetyBench con- SafetyBench Question:

Figure 2: Summarized evaluation results for various LLMs across three segments of SafetyBench. In order to evaluate Chinese API-based LLMs with strict filtering mechanisms, we remove questions with highly sensitive keywords to construct the Chinese subset. tains 11,435 diverse samples sourced from a wide range of origins, covering 7 distinct categories of safety problems, which provides a comprehensive assessment of the safety of LLMs. (3) Variety of Question Types. Test questions in SafetyBench encompass a diverse array of types, spanning dia- logue scenarios, real-life situations, safety compar- isons, safety knowledge inquiries, and many more. This diverse array ensures that LLMs are rigor- ously tested in various safety-related contexts and scenarios. (4) Multilingual Support. SafetyBench offers both Chinese and English data, which could facilitate the evaluation of both Chinese and En- glish LLMs, ensuring a broader and more inclusive assessment. With SafetyBench, we conduct experiments to evaluate the safety of 25 popular Chinese and En- glish LLMs in both zero-shot and few-shot settings. The summarized results are shown in Figure 2. Our findings reveal that GPT-4 stands out significantly, outperforming other LLMs in our evaluation by a substantial margin. Notably, this performance gap is particularly pronounced in specific safety categories such as Physical Health, pointing to- wards crucial directions for enhancing the safety of LLMs. Further, it is worth highlighting that most LLMs achieve lower than 80% average accuracy and lower than 70% accuracy on some categories such as Unfairness and Bias, which underscores the considerable room for improvement in enhanc- ing the safety of LLMs. We hope SafetyBench will contribute to a deeper comprehension of the safety profiles of various LLMs, spanning 7 distinct di- mensions, and assist developers in enhancing the safety of LLMs in a swift and efficient manner.

# 2 Related Work # 2.1 Safety Benchmarks for LLMs Previous safety benchmarks mainly focus on a certain type of safety problems. The Winogen- der benchmark (Rudinger et al., 2018) focuses on a specific dimension of social bias: gender bias. By examining gender bias with respect to occu- pations through coreference resolution, the bench- mark could provide insight into whether the model tends to link certain occupations and genders based on stereotypes. The RealToxicityPrompts (Gehman et al., 2020) dataset contains 100K sentence-level prompts derived from English web text and paired with toxicity scores from Perspective API. This dataset is often used to evaluate language modelsâ toxic generations. The rise of LLMs brings up new problems to LLM evaluation (e.g., long con- text (Bai et al., 2023) and agent (Liu et al., 2023) abilities). So is it for safety evaluation. The BBQ benchmark (Parrish et al., 2022) can be used to evaluate LLMsâ social bias along nine social di- mensions. It compares the modelâ s choice under both under-informative context and adequately in- formative context, which could reflect whether the tested models rely on stereotypes to give their an- swers. Jiang et al. (2021) compiled the COMMON- SENSE NORM BANK dataset that contains moral judgements on everyday situations and trained Del- phi based on the integrated data. Recently, two Chinese safety benchmarks (Sun et al., 2023; Xu et al., 2023) include test prompts covering various safety categories, which could make the safety eval- uation for LLMs more comprehensive. Differently, SafetyBench use multiple choice questions from seven safety categories to automatically evaluate LLMsâ safety with lower cost and error. # 2.2 Benchmarks Using Multiple Choice Questions A number of benchmarks have deployed multiple choice questions to evaluate LLMsâ

capabilities. The popular MMLU benchmark (Hendrycks et al., 2021b) consists of multi-domain and multi-task questions collected from real-word books and ex- aminations. It is frequently used to evaluate LLMsâ world knowledge and problem solving ability. Sim- ilar Chinese benchmarks are also developed to eval- uate LLMsâ world knowledge with questions from examinations, such as C-EVAL (Huang et al., 2023) and MMCU (Zeng, 2023). AGIEval (Zhong et al., 2023) is another popular bilingual benchmark to assess LLMs in the context of human-centric stan- dardized exams. However, these benchmarks gener- ally focus on the overall knowledge and reasoning abilities of LLMs, while SafetyBench specifically focuses on the safety dimension of LLMs. # 3 SafetyBench Construction An overview of SafetyBench is presented in Fig- ure 1. We collect a total of 11,435 multiple choice questions spanning across 7 categories of safety issues from several different sources. More exam- ples are provided in Figure 6 in Appendix. Next, we will introduce the category breakdown and the data collection process in detail. # 3.1 Problem Categories SafetyBench encompasses 7 categories of safety problems, derived from the 8 typical safety sce- narios proposed by Sun et al. (2023). We slightly modify the definition of each category and exclude the Sensitive Topics category due to the potential divergence in answers for political issues in Chi- nese and English contexts. We aim to ensure the consistency of the test questions for both Chinese and English.

The considered 7 safety issues are listed as follows: 1. Offensiveness. This category is about threat, insult, scorn, profanity, sarcasm, impoliteness, etc. LLMs are required to identify and oppose these offensive contents or actions. 2. Unfairness and Bias. This type of safety problem is mainly about social bias across various topics such as race, gender, religion, etc. LLMs are expected to identify and avoid unfair and biased expressions and actions.

5. Illegal Activities. This category focuses on illegal behaviors, which could cause negative societal repercussions. LLMs need to distin- guish between legal and illegal behaviors and have basic knowledge of law. 6. Ethics and Morality. Besides behaviors that clearly violate the law, there are also many other activities that are immoral. This cate- gory focuses on morally related issues. LLMs should have a high level of ethics and be ob- ject to unethical behaviors or speeches. 7. Privacy and Property. This category concen- trates on the issues related to privacy, property, investment, etc. LLMs should possess a keen understanding of privacy and property, with a commitment to preventing any inadvertent breaches of user privacy or loss of property.

# 3.2 Data Collection In contrast to prior research such as Huang et al. (2023), we encounter challenges in acquiring a suf- ficient volume of questions spanning seven distinct safety issue categories, directly from a wide array of examination sources. Furthermore, certain ques- tions in exams are too conceptual, which are hard to reflect LLMsâ safety in diverse real-life scenar- ios. Based on the above considerations, we con- struct SafetyBench by collecting data from various sources including:

â ¢ Existing datasets. For some categories of safety issues such as Unfairness and Bias, there are existing public datasets that can be utilized. We construct multiple choice ques- tions by applying some transformations on the samples in the existing datasets. â ¢ Exams. There are also many suitable ques- tions in safety-related exams that fall into sev- eral considered categories. For example, some questions in exams related to morality and law pertain to Illegal Activities and Ethics and Morality issues. We carefully curate a selec- tion of these questions from such exams.

â ¢ Augmentation. Although a considerable num- ber of questions can be collected from exist- ing datasets and exams, there are still certain safety categories that lack sufficient data such as Privacy and Property. Manually creating questions from scratch is exceedingly chal- lenging for annotators who are not experts in the targeted domain. Therefore, we resort to LLMs for data augmentation. The augmented samples are filtered and manually checked be- fore added to SafetyBench. The overall distribution of data sources is shown in Figure 3. Using a commercial translation API 1, we translate the gathered Chinese data into English, and the English data into Chinese, thereby ensuring uniformity of the questions in both languages. We also try to translate the data using ChatGPT that could bring more coherent translations, but there are two problems according to our observations: (1) ChatGPT may occasionally refuse to translate the text due to safety concerns. (2) ChatGPT might also modify an unsafe choice to a safe one after translation at times. Therefore, we finally select the Baidu API to translate our data. We acknowl- edge that the translation step might introduce some noises due to cultural nuances or variations in ex- pressions. Therefore, we make an effort to mitigate this issue, which will be introduced in Section 3.3. 3.2.1 Data from Existing datasets There are four categories of safety issues for which we utilize existing English and Chinese datasets, in- cluding Offensiveness, Unfairness and Bias, Physi- cal Health and Ethics and Morality.

1https://fanyi-api.baidu.com/ Offensiveness. The employed Chinese datasets include COLD (Deng et al., 2022). COLD is a benchmark for Chinese offensive language detec- tion. It comprises posts from social media plat- forms that are labeled as offensive or not by hu- man annotators. We randomly sample a total of 288 instances labeled as Attack Individual and 312 instances labeled as Other Non-Offensive to con- struct questions with two options, which require to judge whether the provided text is offensive. The employed English datasets include the Jigsaw Tox- icity Severity dataset 2 and the adversarial dataset proposed in Dinan et al. (2019). The Jigsaw Toxic- ity Severity dataset comprises pairs of Wikipedia Talk page comments, with annotations identifying the more toxic comment in each pair. We randomly sample 700 pairs of comments to construct the questions which require to choose the more toxic option. The adversarial dataset proposed in Dinan et al. (2019) is collected by encouraging annotators to hack trained classifiers in a multi-turn dialogue. We randomly sample 350 safe responses and 350 unsafe responses to construct the questions, which entail the evaluation of the offensiveness of the last response in a multi-turn dialogue. Unfairness and Bias. The employed Chinese datasets include COLD and CDial-Bias (Zhou et al., 2022). We randomly sample 225 instances that are labeled as Attack Group and 225 instances that are labeled as Anti-Bias. The sampled instances are uniformly drawn from three topics including re- gion, gender and race. Note that there is no overlap between the COLD data used here and the COLD data used in the Offensiveness category. CDial-Bias is another Chinese benchmark focusing on social bias, which collects data from a Chinese question- and-reply website Zhihu 3. Similarly, we randomly sample 300 biased instances and 300 non-biased in- stances uniformly from four topics including race, gender, region and occupation. The employed En- glish datasets include RedditBias (Barikeri et al., 2021). RedditBias gathers comments from Reddit and annotates whether the comments are biased. We randomly sample 500 biased instances and 500 non-biased instances uniformly from five topics in- cluding black person, Jews, Muslims, LGBTQ and female.

Physical Health. We havenâ t found suitable Chi- nese datasets for this category, so we only adopt one English dataset: SafeText (Levy et al., 2022). SafeText contains 367 human-written real-life sce- narios and provides several safe and unsafe sugges- tions for each scenario. We construct two types of questions from SafeText. The first type of ques- tion requires selecting all safe actions among the mixture of safe and unsafe actions for one specific scenario. The second type of questions requires comparing two candidate actions conditioned on one scenario and choosing the safer action. There are 367 questions for each type.

Ethics and Morality. We havenâ t found suitable Chinese datasets for this category, so we only em- ploy several English datasets including Scruples (Lourie et al., 2021), MIC (Ziems et al., 2022), Moral Stories (Emelin et al., 2021) and Ethics (Hendrycks et al., 2021a). Scruples pair different actions and let crowd workers identify the more ethical action. We randomly sample 200 pairs of actions from Scruples to construct the ques- tions requiring selecting the more ethical option. MIC collect several dialogue modelsâ responses to prompts from Reddit. Annotators are instructed to judge whether the response violates some Rule-of- Thumbs (RoTs). If so, an additional appropriate response needs to be provided. We thus randomly sample 200 prompts from MIC, each accompanied by both an ethical and an unethical response. The constructed questions require identifying the more ethical response conditioned on the given prompt. Moral Stories include many stories that have de- scriptions of situations, intentions of the actor, and a pair of moral and immoral action. We randomly sample 200 stories to construct the questions that require selecting the more ethical action to achieve the actorâ s intention in various situations. Ethics contains annotated moral judgements about diverse text scenarios. We randomly sample 200 instances from both the justice and the commonsense subset of Ethics. The questions constructed from justice require selecting all statements that have no conflict with justice among 4 statements. The questions constructed from commonsense ask for common- sense moral judgements on various scenarios.

# 3.2.2 Data from Exams We first broadly collect available online exam ques- tions related to the considered 7 safety issues us- ing search engines. We collect a total of about 600 questions across 7 categories of safety issues through this approach. Then we search for exam papers in a website 4 that integrates a large number of exam papers across various subjects. We collect about 500 middle school exam papers with the key- words â healthy and safetyâ and â morality and lawâ . According to initial observations, the questions in the collected exam papers cover 4 categories of safety issues, including Physical Health, Mental Health, Illegal Activities and Ethics and Morality. Therefore, we ask crowd workers to select suit- able questions from the exam papers and assign each question to one of the 4 categories mentioned above. Additionally, we require workers to filter questions that are too conceptual (e.g., a question about the year in which a certain law was enacted) , in order to better reflect LLMsâ

safety in real-life scenarios. Considering the original collected exam papers primarily consist of images, an OCR tool is first used to extract the textual questions. Workers need to correct typos in the questions and provide answers to the questions they are sure. When faced with questions that our workers are uncertain about, we authors meticulously determine the correct an- swers through thorough research and extensive dis- cussions. We finally amass approximately 2000 questions through this approach. # 3.2.3 Data from Augmentation After collecting data from existing datasets and exams, there are still several categories of safety issues that suffer from data deficiencies, including Mental Health, Illegal Activities and Privacy and Property. Considering the difficulties of requiring crowd workers to create diverse questions from scratch, we utilize powerful LLMs to generate var- ious questions first, and then we employ manual verification and revision processes to refine these questions. Specifically, we use one-shot prompting to let ChatGPT generate questions pertaining to the designated category of safety issues. The in- context examples are randomly sampled from the questions found through search engines. Through initial attempts, we find that instructing ChatGPT to generate questions related to a large and coarse topic would lead to unsatisfactory diversity.

There- 4https://www.zxxk.com/ fore, we further collect specific keywords about fine-grained sub-topics within each category of safety issues. Then we explicitly require ChatGPT to generate questions that are directly linked to some specific keyword. The detailed prompts are shown in Table 1. After collecting the questions generated by Chat- GPT, we first filter questions with highly overlap- ping content to ensure the BLEU-4 score between any two generated questions is smaller than 0.7. Than we manually check each questionâ s correct- ness. If a question contains errors, we either re- move it or revise it to make it reasonable. We finally collect about 3500 questions through this approach. # 3.3 Quality Control We take great care to ensure that every question in SafetyBench undergoes thorough human valida- tion. Data sourced from existing datasets inherently comes with annotations provided by human annota- tors. Data derived from exams and augmentations is meticulously reviewed either by our team or by a group of dedicated crowd workers. However, there are still some errors related to translation, or the questions themselves. We suppose the questions where GPT-4 provides identical answers to those of humans are mostly correct, considering the pow- erful ability of GPT-4. We thus manually check the samples where GPT-4 fails to give the provided human answer. We remove the samples with clear translation problems and unreasonable options. We also remove the samples that might yield diver- gent answers due to varying cultural contexts. In instances where the question is sound but the pro- vided answer is erroneous, we would rectify the incorrect answer. Each sample is checked by two authors at first. In cases where there is a disparity in their assessments, an additional author conducts a meticulous review to reach a consensus.

Figure 4: Examples of zero-shot evaluation and few-shot evaluation. We show the Chinese prompts in black and English prompts in green. The red text needs to be predicted by LLMs. formats and enable accurate extraction of the an- swers, we make some minor changes to the prompts shown in Figure 4 for some models, which are listed in Figure 5 in Appendix. We set the tem- perature to 0 when testing LLMs to minimize the variance brought by random sampling. For cases where we canâ t extract one single answer from the LLMâ s response, we randomly sample an option as the predicted answer. It is worth noting that instances where this approach is necessary typi- cally constitute less than 1% of all questions, thus exerting minimal impact on the results.

SafetyBench: Evaluating the Safety of Large Language Models with Multiple Choice Questions
We donâ t include CoT-based evaluation in this version because SafetyBench is less reasoning- intensive than benchmarks testing the modelâ s general capabilities such as C-Eval and AGIEval. Moreover, adding CoT does not bring significant improvements for most of the models evaluated in C-Eval and AGIEval, although their test questions are more reasoning-intensive. Therefore, adding CoT might be even less beneficial when evaluating LLMs on SafetyBench. Based on the above consid- erations and the considerable costs for evaluation, we exclude the CoT-based evaluation for now. # 4.2 Evaluated Models We evaluate a total of 25 popular LLMs, covering diverse organizations and scale of parameters, as detailed in Table 2. For API-based models, we eval- uate the GPT series from OpenAI and some APIs provided by Chinese companies, due to limited ac- cess to other APIs. For open-sourced models, we evaluate medium-sized models with at most 33B parameters in this version due to limited computing resources.

# 4.3 Main Results Zero-shot Results. We show the zero-shot re- sults in Table 3. API-based LLMs generally achieve significantly higher accuracy than other open-sourced LLMs. In particular, GPT-4 stands out as it surpasses other evaluated LLMs by a sub- stantial margin, boasting an impressive lead of nearly 10 percentage points over the second-best model, gpt-3.5-turbo. Notably, in certain cate- gories of safety issues (e.g., Physical Health and Ethics and Morality), the gap between GPT-4 and other LLMs becomes even larger. This observa- tion offers valuable guidance for determining the safety concerns that warrant particular attention in other models. We also take note of GPT-4â s rela- tively poorer performance in the Unfairness and Bias category compared to other categories. We thus manually examine the questions that GPT-4 provides wrong answers and find that GPT-4 may make wrong predictions due to a lack of under- standing of certain words or events (such as â

These observations underscore the im- portance of possessing a robust semantic under- standing ability as a fundamental prerequisite for ensuring the safety of LLMs. Whatâ s more, by comparing LLMsâ performances on Chinese and English data, we find that LLMs created by Chi- nese organizations perform significantly better on Chinese data, while the GPT series from OpenAI exhibit more balanced performances on Chinese and English data. Five-shot Results. The five-shot results are pre- sented in Table 4. The improvement brought by incorporating few-shot examples varies for differ- ent LLMs, which is in line with previous observa- tions (Huang et al., 2023). Some LLMs such as text-davinci-003 and internlm-chat-7B gain significant improvements from in-context exam- ples, while some LLMs such as gpt-3.5-turbo might obtain negative gains from in-context ex- amples.

This may be due to the â alignment taxâ , wherein alignment training potentially compro- mises the modelâ s proficiency in other areas such as the in-context learning ability (Zhao et al., 2023). We also find that five-shot evaluation could bring more stable results because LLMs would generate fewer responses without extractable answers when guided by in-context examples. # 4.4 Chinese Subset Results Given that most APIs provided by Chinese com- panies implement strict filtering mechanisms to reject unsafe queries (such as those containing sen- sitive keywords), it becomes impractical to assess the performance of API-based LLMs across the entire test set. Consequently, we opt to eliminate samples containing highly sensitive keywords and subsequently select 300 questions for each cate- gory, taking into account the API rate limits. This process results in a total of 2,100 questions. The five-shot evaluation results on this filtered subset of SafetyBench are presented in Table 5. ChatGLM2 demonstrates impressive performance, with only about a three percentage point difference compared to GPT-4. Notably, ErnieBot also achieves strong performance in the majority of categories except for Unfairness and Bias.

SafetyBench: Evaluating the Safety of Large Language Models with Multiple Choice Questions
# 5 Discussion SafetyBench aims to measure LLMsâ ability to understand safety related issues. While it doesnâ t directly measure the LLMsâ safety when encounter- ing various open prompts, we believe the evaluated ability to understand safety related issues is funda- mental and indispensable to construct safe LLMs. For example, if a model canâ t identify the correct actions to do when a person gets injured, it would face challenges in furnishing precise and valuable responses to pertinent inquiries during real-time conversations. Conversely, if a model possesses a robust comprehension of safety-related issues (e.g., good sense of morality, deep understanding of im- plicit or adversarial contexts), it becomes more feasible to steer the model towards generating safe responses. SafetyBench covers 7 common categories of safety issues, while excluding those associated with instruction attacks (e.g., goal hijacking and role- play instructions). This is because we think that the core problem in instruction attack is the conflict between following user instructions and adhering to explicit or implicit safety constraints, which is different from the safety understanding problem SafetyBench is concerned with.

SafetyBench: Evaluating the Safety of Large Language Models with Multiple Choice Questions
# 6 Conclusion We introduce SafetyBench, the first comprehensive safety evaluation benchmark with multiple choice questions. With 11,435 Chinese and English ques- tions covering 7 categories of safety issues in Safe- tyBench, we extensively evaluate the safety abili- ties of 25 LLMs from various organizations. We find that open-sourced LLMs exhibit a significant performance gap compared to GPT-4, indicating ample room for future safety improvements. We hope SafetyBench could play an important role in evaluating the safety of LLMs and facilitating the rapid development of safer LLMs. We advocate for developers to systematically address the exposed safety issues rather than expending significant ef- forts to hack our data and merely pursuing higher leaderboard scores.

A Survey of Hallucination in Large Foundation Models
Largeâ Foundation Models (LFMs). The paper classi- fies various types of hallucination phenomena that are specific to LFMs and establishes eval- uation criteria for assessing the extent of hal- lucination. It also examines existing strategies for mitigating hallucination in LFMs and dis- cusses potential directions for future research in this area. Essentially, the paper offers a com- prehensive examination of the challenges and solutions related to hallucination in LFMs. 1 # 1 Introduction Foundation Models (FMs), exemplified by GPT-3 (Brown et al., 2020) and Stable Diffusion (Rom- bach et al., 2022), marks the commencement of a novel era in the realm of machine learning and generative artificial intelligence. Researchers intro- duced the term â foundation modelâ to describe machine learning models that are trained on exten- sive, diverse, and unlabeled data, enabling them to proficiently handle a wide array of general tasks. These tasks encompass language comprehension, text and image generation, and natural language conversation. These models excel in tasks involving generative abilities and human interaction, such as generating marketing content or producing intricate artwork based on minimal prompts. However, adapting and implementing these models for enterprise applica- tions can present certain difficulties (Bommasani et al., 2021). # 1.2 What is Hallucination in Foundation Model? Hallucination in the context of a foundation model refers to a situation where the model generates con- tent that is not based on factual or accurate infor- mation. Hallucination can occur when the model produces text that includes details, facts, or claims that are fictional, misleading, or entirely fabricated, rather than providing reliable and truthful informa- tion. This issue arises due to the modelâ s ability to generate plausible-sounding text based on patterns it has learned from its training data, even if the generated content does not align with reality. Hal- lucination can be unintentional and may result from various factors, including biases in the training data, the modelâ s lack of access to real-time or up-to- date information, or the inherent limitations of the model in comprehending and generating contextu- ally accurate responses. # 1.1 What is a Foundation Model Foundation models refer to massive AI models trained on extensive volumes of unlabeled data, typically through self-supervised learning.

A Survey of Hallucination in Large Foundation Models
This training approach yields versatile models capable of excelling in a diverse range of tasks, including image classification, natural language processing, Addressing hallucination in foundation models and LLMs is crucial, especially in applications where factual accuracy is paramount, such as jour- nalism, healthcare, and legal contexts. Researchers and developers are actively working on techniques to mitigate hallucinations and improve the reliabil- ity and trustworthiness of these models. With the recent rise in this problem Fig. 2, it has become even more critical to address them.

A Survey of Hallucination in Large Foundation Models
â corresponding author # 1.3 Why this survey? In recent times, there has been a significant surge of interest in LFMs within both academic and in- dustrial sectors. Additionally, one of their main challenges is hallucination. The survey in (Ji et al., 2023) describes hallucination in natural language generation. In the era of large models, (Zhang et al., 2023c) have done another great timely survey studying hallucination in LLMs. However, besides not only in LLMs, the problem of hallucination also exists in other foundation models such as image, video, and audio as well. Thus, in this paper, we do the first comprehensive survey of hallucination across all major modalities of foundation models.

A Survey of Hallucination in Large Foundation Models
# 1.3.1 Our contributions The contributions of this survey paper are as fol- lows: 1. We succinctly categorize the existing works in the area of hallucination in LFMs, as shown in Fig. 1. 2. We offer an extensive examination of large foundation models (LFMs) in Sections 2 to 5. 3. We cover all the important aspects such as i. detection, ii. mitigation, iii. tasks, iv. datasets, and v. evaluation metrics, given in Table 1. 4. We finally also provide our views and area. possible associ- We will ated available for access at https://github.com/vr25/ hallucination-foundation-model-survey # 1.3.2 Classification of Hallucination As shown in Fig. 1, we broadly classify the LFMs into four types as follows: i. Text, ii. Image, iii. video, and iv. Audio.

A Survey of Hallucination in Large Foundation Models
The paper follows the following structure. Based on the above classification, we describe the halluci- nation and mitigation techniques for all four modal- ities in: i. text (Section 2), ii. image (Section 3), iii. video (Section 4), and iv. audio (Section 5). In Section 6, we briefly discuss how hallucinations are NOT always bad, and hence, in the creative do- main, they can be well-suited to producing artwork. Finally, we give some possible future directions for addressing this issue along with a conclusion in Section 7. # 2 Hallucination in Large Language Models As shown in Fig. 4, hallucination occurs when the LLM produces fabricated responses. # 2.1 LLMs SELFCHECKGPT (Manakul et al., 2023), is a method for zero-resource black-box hallucination detection in generative LLMs. This technique fo- cuses on identifying instances where these models generate inaccurate or unverified information with- out relying on additional resources or labeled data. It aims to enhance the trustworthiness and reliabil- ity of LLMs by providing a mechanism to detect and address hallucinations without external guid- ance or datasets. Self-contradictory hallucinations in LLMs are explored in (Mündler et al., 2023). and addresses them through evaluation, detection, and mitigation techniques. It refers to situations where LLMs generate text that contradicts itself, lead- ing to unreliable or nonsensical outputs. This work presents methods to evaluate the occurrence of such hallucinations, detect them in LLM-generated text, and mitigate their impact to improve the overall quality and trustworthiness of LLM-generated con- tent. PURR (Chen et al., 2023) is a method designed to efficiently edit and correct hallucinations in lan- guage models. PURR leverages denoising lan- guage model corruptions to identify and rectify these hallucinations effectively. This approach aims to enhance the quality and accuracy of lan- guage model outputs by reducing the prevalence of hallucinated content. Hallucination datasets: Hallucinations are com- monly linked to knowledge gaps in language mod- els (LMs).
