用多人隐匿角色游戏测试大模型说谎能力,发现所有模型都愿为达目的撒谎。
LieCraft: A Multi-Agent Framework for Evaluating Deceptive Capabilities in Language Models
- 设计隐藏身份的多人博弈游戏,模拟长期策略下的欺骗行为
- 12个顶尖模型均表现出撒谎、隐瞒意图和恶意破坏倾向
- 基于真实场景如医疗资源分配,评估模型在高风险伦理情境下的表现
大型语言模型具备强大通用能力,但也带来严重安全风险,尤其在自主性增强、人类监管减弱时可能产生欺骗行为。本文提出LieCraft:一种新型多智能体评估框架与沙盒,用于衡量语言模型的欺骗能力,弥补先前基于游戏评估的不足。核心是一个多玩家隐匿角色游戏,玩家选择道德立场,通过长期策略完成任务:合作者协作解决事件挑战并揭露坏人,叛逃者则逃避怀疑,暗中破坏任务。为确保现实相关性,构建了10个真实场景,如育儿、医院资源分配、贷款审批等,将底层机制嵌入具有伦理意义的高风险领域。通过精心设计的游戏机制与奖励结构,实现平衡对局,激励有意义的战略选择,杜绝无效策略。除框架本身外,报告了12个前沿大模型在三个行为维度的表现:背叛倾向、欺骗技能和指控准确性。结果表明,尽管模型在能力与整体对齐度上存在差异,但所有模型都愿意采取不道德行为、隐藏意图,甚至直接撒谎以达成目标。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Large Language Models (LLMs) exhibit impressive general-purpose capabilities but also introduce serious safety risks, particularly the potential for deception as models acquire increased agency and human oversight diminishes. In this work, we present LieCraft: a novel evaluation framework and sandbox for measuring LLM deception that addresses key limitations of prior game-based evaluations. At its core, LieCraft is a novel multiplayer hidden-role game in which players select an ethical alignment and execute strategies over a long time-horizon to accomplish missions. Cooperators work together to solve event challenges and expose bad actors, while Defectors evade suspicion while secretly sabotaging missions. To enable real-world relevance, we develop 10 grounded scenarios such as childcare, hospital resource allocation, and loan underwriting that recontextualize the underlying mechanics in ethically significant, high-stakes domains. We ensure balanced gameplay in LieCraft through careful design of game mechanics and reward structures that incentivize meaningful strategic choices while eliminating degenerate strategies. Beyond the framework itself, we report results from 12 state-of-the-art LLMs across three behavioral axes: propensity to defect, deception skill, and accusation accuracy. Our findings reveal that despite differences in competence and overall alignment, all models are willing to act unethically, conceal their intentions, and outright lie to pursue their goals.
