Measuring Values in AI and Humans

Measuring Values in AI and Humans

A New Framework for Understanding AI Alignment

This research introduces Generative Psychometrics for Values (GPV), a novel approach for measuring human and AI value systems using large language models.

  • Creates a data-driven paradigm for evaluating values in both humans and AI systems
  • Grounds measurement in text-revealed selective perceptions
  • Establishes new methods to assess value alignment between humans and AI
  • Offers implications for creating safer, more aligned AI systems

Security Relevance: By providing frameworks to measure AI value systems, this research advances our ability to develop value-aligned AI—a critical component of AI safety and security governance. Understanding how to measure values helps identify potential misalignment before deployment.
