[MIT] RLCR: Teaching AI models to say "I'm not sure"
Mirrored from r/LocalLLaMA for archival readability. Support the source by reading on the original site.
Confidence is persuasive. In AI systems, it is often misleading.
Today's most capable reasoning models share a trait with the loudest voice in the room: They deliver every answer with the same unshakable certainty, whether they're right or guessing. Researchers at MIT's Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (CSAIL) have now traced that overconfidence to a specific flaw in how these models are trained, and developed a method that fixes it without giving up any accuracy.
