- R · What Makes It Special
- Meta's Llama Guard (December 2023), a 7B Llama 2-based safeguard model that labels both user prompts and model responses safe or unsafe and names the violated categories of its six-part taxonomy (violence and hate, sexual content, guns and illegal weapons, controlled substances, suicide and self-harm, criminal planning); tuned on about 13K examples, it matched or beat existing moderation tools on the OpenAI Moderation and ToxicChat benchmarks, and its categories can be changed by prompting.
