Linguistic Calibration trains Llama 2 to emit confidence phrases that let a downstream reader make calibrated forecasts on related questions. The key move is defining calibration through reader utility instead of self-reported probability. Hedged text that doesn't help the reader makes no forecasting progress, so generic hedging can't game the objective.

Conformal Factuality casts LM correctness as uncertainty quantification. Decompose the answer into sub-claims, score each, drop the low-confidence ones until the retained set is ~1-α factual. The sub-claim decomposition is doing most of the work, and the conformal machinery rides on top. Atomic-claim splitters have known failure modes, and the guarantee inherits them.

#CFP for `Differentiable Almost Everything: Differentiable Relaxations, Algorithms, Operators, and Simulators`, a workshop at #ICML

Differentiable programming is a powerful tool, so I am quite interested in this workshop (especially as a #JuliaLang user, which has fantastic #AD support).
