Safety: Your Most Important Responsibility

AI models are powerful but don't naturally understand consequences. Without proper training, they can generate harmful, biased, or misleading content.

You translate high-level safety concerns into specific examples the model can learn from.

Content Safety

  • Filter risky content – Flag harassment, unsafe material, or content that violates policies

  • Tag sensitive topics – Mark health, finance, or legal content for stricter handling

  • Check for bias – Remove responses that stereotype or discriminate against groups

Response Safety

  • Label safe answers – Judge which responses are acceptable for sensitive prompts

  • Create safety patterns – Refine how models handle requests for harmful information

  • Apply safety rubrics – Follow guidelines that define acceptable vs. blocked outputs

Red-Teaming

Adversarial testing where you intentionally try to break the model's safety rules.

  • Write challenging prompts – Design tricky requests to test safety boundaries

  • Document failures – Flag any harmful outputs the model produces

  • Turn failures into training – Use what breaks to make the model safer
