CHAI for LLMs is a framework that improves large language models’ performance on code‑mixed translation tasks by using LLMs as annotators to create preference data, applying reinforcement learning from AI feedback, incorporating LLM‑generated domain knowledge for iterative refinement, and evaluating on real‑world datasets. The approach yields a 68.45% average win rate over state‑of‑the‑art open‑source models in human‑adjudicated tests. It demonstrates a scalable method to enhance code‑mixed language understanding in open‑source LLMs.

Mitigating social bias in Large Language Models (LLMs) presents a distinct alignment challenge: unlike verifiable tasks, bias lacks a single ground truth, creating a high-variance, subjective reward landscape. Previous preference-based fine-tuning methods have major trade-offs: Direct Preference Optimization (DPO) is limited by the lack of exploration inherent in offline training, while Proximal Policy Optimization (PPO) can lead to training instability due to potentially unreliable critic estimates.
The paper introduces Personalized Group Relative Policy Optimization (P‑GRPO), a new alignment framework for large language models that separates advantage estimation from immediate batch statistics. By normalizing advantages using preference‑group‑specific reward histories instead of the concurrent generation group, P‑GRPO maintains contrastive signals for distinct user preferences. Experiments across various tasks show that P‑GRPO converges faster and yields higher rewards than standard GRPO, improving alignment with heterogeneous human preferences while preserving general capabilities.
