Improving Model Safety Behavior with Rule-Based Rewards

OpenAI has developed a method called Rule-Based Rewards (RBRs) that trains models to behave safely without requiring extensive human data collection. The approach uses explicit rules to generate reward signals during training, offering a more scalable alternative to traditional RLHF-based safety alignment. This represents a practical contribution to alignment methodology from a Tier 1 lab.
