SLM Trustworthiness - Machine Ethics: leaderboard
SLM Trustworthiness (Benchmarking Trustworthiness of SLMs, arXiv 2608.11981v1, Tables I, II and IV): TrustLLM evaluation of uncompressed instruction-tuned models from 360M to 8B parameters, the baselines of a pruning, quantization and distillation study. Machine ethics: mean accuracy on implicit ethics (ETHICS, Social-Chem-101) and explicit ethics (MoralChoice) sub-tasks, percent. Higher is better.
Metric: TrustLLM machine-ethics accuracy (%; sub-task mean). Source: arxiv.org. Saturation forecast: Estimated already saturated. 11 models tracked.
