There’s plenty of literature on this, but here are a couple papers that might be helpful for people doing their own training: - Constitutional AI: by Anthropic, an “RLAIF” technique that creates the preference model for “finding errors” based on a set of around 70 “principles” the AI uses to check its own output, not human feedback like in ChatGPT. This technique taught the Claude bot to avoid harmful output with few to no manual harmfulness labels!…&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://hackerpaper.kaipfister.de/p/2212.10560/"&gt;Paper and discussion history&lt;/a&gt;.

OpenAssistant should make it close to ChatGPT (from GPT-3.5 version) if the LLaMA is as powerful as claimed.
