During the pre-training phase, various strategies can be applied to mitigate bias for LLMs. Modifying the neural architecture of an LLM, such as adjusting layers and encoders, can help reduce inherent biases as the LLM learns from data (Li et al., 2020a). Another approach is to adjust the loss function to prioritize fairness over perplexity, ensuring that LLM outputs are more equitable. Selective parameter updates allow for finetuning specific parts of a model to control bias without necessitating a full retraining process, making this an efficient method for bias mitigation (Lu et al., 2020; Garimella et al., 2022). Regular audits of model algorithms and architectures ensure that these mitigation strategies are continuously effective and that new biases are not introduced during updates or retraining (Zayed et al., 2023).

The rapid development and deployment of large language models (LLMs) have introduced a new frontier in artificial intelligence, marked by unprecedented capabilities in natural language understanding and generation. However, the increasing integration of these models into critical applications raises substantial safety concerns, necessitating a thorough examination of their potential risks and associated mitigation strategies. This survey provides a comprehensive overview of the current landscape of LLM safety, covering four major categories: value misalignment, robustness to adversarial attacks, misuse, and autonomous AI risks. In addition to the comprehensive review of the mitigation methodologies and evaluation resources on these four aspects, we further explore four topics related to LLM safety: the safety implications of LLM agents, the role of interpretability in enhancing LLM safety, the technology roadmaps proposed and abided by a list of AI companies and institutes for LLM safety, and AI governance aimed at LLM safety with discussions on international cooperation, policy proposals, and prospective regulatory directions. Our findings underscore the necessity for a proactive, multifaceted approach to LLM safety, emphasizing the integration of technical solutions, ethical considerations, and robust governance frameworks. This survey is intended to serve as a foundational resource for academy researchers, industry practitioners, and policymakers, offering insights into the challenges and opportunities associated with the safe integration of LLMs into society. Ultimately, it seeks to contribute to the safe and beneficial development of LLMs, aligning with the overarching goal of harnessing AI for societal advancement and well-being.
