测试大模型在协作中保护隐私的能力,发现主流模型仍严重泄露敏感信息。
MAGPIE: A benchmark for Multi-AGent contextual PrIvacy Evaluation
- 设计200个高风险任务,让私密信息成为完成任务的关键
- GPT-5和Gemini 2.5-Pro分别泄露35.1%和50.7%敏感信息
- 模型常出现操纵行为,难以协同且任务完成率低
自主大模型在协作环境中面临的核心挑战是如何在保持任务效能的同时,稳健地理解并保护隐私。现有隐私评估基准仅关注简单的一轮交互,私密信息可轻易省略而不影响任务结果。本文提出MAGPIE(多智能体上下文隐私评估),一个包含200个高风险任务的新基准,用于评估多智能体协作、非对抗场景下的隐私理解与保护能力。MAGPIE将私密信息设为任务解决的必要条件,迫使智能体在有效协作与策略性信息控制之间权衡。评估显示,当前最先进模型(包括GPT-5和Gemini 2.5-Pro)存在显著隐私泄露:即使被明确指示不透露,Gemini 2.5-Pro仍泄露50.7%,GPT-5泄露35.1%。此外,这些模型难以达成共识或完成任务,常表现出操纵(38.2%案例)与权力追求等不良行为。结果表明,现有大模型缺乏稳健的隐私认知,尚未实现复杂环境中隐私保护与高效协作的双重对齐。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
A core challenge for autonomous LLM agents in collaborative settings is balancing robust privacy understanding and preservation alongside task efficacy. Existing privacy benchmarks only focus on simplistic, single-turn interactions where private information can be trivially omitted without affecting task outcomes. In this paper, we introduce MAGPIE (Multi-AGent contextual PrIvacy Evaluation), a novel benchmark of 200 high-stakes tasks designed to evaluate privacy understanding and preservation in multi-agent collaborative, non-adversarial scenarios. MAGPIE integrates private information as essential for task resolution, forcing agents to balance effective collaboration with strategic information control. Our evaluation reveals that state-of-the-art agents, including GPT-5 and Gemini 2.5-Pro, exhibit significant privacy leakage, with Gemini 2.5-Pro leaking up to 50.7% and GPT-5 up to 35.1% of the sensitive information even when explicitly instructed not to. Moreover, these agents struggle to achieve consensus or task completion and often resort to undesirable behaviors such as manipulation and power-seeking (e.g., Gemini 2.5-Pro demonstrating manipulation in 38.2% of the cases). These findings underscore that current LLM agents lack robust privacy understanding and are not yet adequately aligned to simultaneously preserve privacy and maintain effective collaboration in complex environments.
