Language models like GPT-3 can generate text based on learned patterns but are neutral and don’t have inherent sentiments or emotions. However, biased training data can result in biased outputs. Sentiment analysis can be challenging with ambiguous or sarcastic text. Misuse can have real-world consequences, so responsible AI usage is important. Researchers at UC Santa Cruz assessed the behavior of models like ChatGPT and GPT-4. They evaluated self-generated explanations, interpretation methods, and evaluated models based on input features. They plan to further study counterfactual and concept-based explanations.
How Effective are Self-Explanations from Large Language Models in Sentiment Analysis?
Language models like GPT-3 are designed to generate text based on patterns in the data they’ve learned. They don’t have emotions, but biases in the training data can affect their outputs. Sentiment analysis can be challenging for ambiguous or sarcastic text. Misclassification can have real-world consequences, so it’s important to use AI responsibly.
Researchers at UC Santa Cruz analyzed the behavior of models like ChatGPT and GPT-4. They studied how these models generate explanations for their predictions. They compared different methods of generating explanations and evaluated their effectiveness.
Evaluating Input Features
The researchers also evaluated the models based on their response to changes in input features. They used methods like gradient saliency, smooth gradient, and integrated gradient to assess the models’ sensitivity to changes in feature values. They also used occlusion saliency to evaluate the models’ response to inputs with certain features removed.
Results and Future Work
The researchers found that self-generated explanations varied greatly and no method had a distinct advantage. They suggested that novel techniques may be needed to improve explanations. The team plans to evaluate other large language models like GPT-4, Bard, and Claude. They also want to study counterfactual explanations and concept-based explanations.
