Robust Decentralized Fairness Auditing

תקציר מקורי באנגליתarXiv:2610.10199v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Emerging legislation requires large language models (LLMs) to be audited for compliance with regulatory standards, particularly fairness. Such black-box audits typically assume a single auditor with access to a large, representative set of queries. In practice, it can be difficult for an auditor to obtain such a query set, but multiple auditors can together cover the relevant demographic groups by auditing the LLM collaboratively with their individual query sets. However, relying on multiple auditors raises a fundamental trust problem, as they may act on behalf of the LLM provider to portray a misleading appearance of fairness, i.e., fairwashing. We propose Auditopus, a novel approach for robust decentralized fairness auditing. In Auditopus,
