Llama Guard

SKU: llama-guard

Llama Guard is a Large Language Model (LLM)-based safeguard developed to ensure safe and appropriate human-AI interactions. It functions by classifying both user inputs and AI-generated outputs to identify and mitigate potential safety risks, such as prompt injections or inappropriate content. The model is instruction-tuned to handle various safety categories and can be customized to align with specific use cases. Llama Guard supports multi-class classification and generates binary decision scores to effectively moderate AI conversations.

Ensuring safe and appropriate interactions in human-AI conversations.
Mitigating prompt injection vulnerabilities in AI systems.
Classifying and moderating content in AI-generated responses.
Customizing safety protocols for specific AI use cases.
Llama Guard demonstrates high autonomy through its ability to perform real-time input-output classification for AI conversations with minimal human intervention once configured. It supports zero-shot and few-shot adaptation to custom safety taxonomies without requiring retraining, enabling dynamic policy enforcement across diverse use cases. The model autonomously handles both prompt classification (user inputs) and response classification (AI outputs) using a single unified system, leveraging LLM capabilities to interpret complex safety guidelines. However, it requires initial human oversight for taxonomy selection/system prompt configuration and periodic updates to maintain effectiveness against evolving threats.
