To address this risk, we introduce Gradient Routed Auxiliary Modules (GRAM), a method for isolating dangerous knowledge to specific modules within a language model. These modules can be switched on or off to control what the model knows, making it possible to restrict or extend access to the most sensitive model capabilities based on user need and trust. In our experiments, we find evidence that a single model trained in this way can approximate multiple models, each trained with a different category of dangerous data filtered out, and this ability holds for models ranging from 50M to 5B parameters. This research is preliminary and has not been applied to production models at Anthropic.📄 Paper, 💻 C...
