| Challenge: | Existing knowledge editing methods for large language models (LLMs) suffer from over-editing, where detoxified models reject legitimate queries, compromising overall performance. |
| Approach: | They propose a toxicity-aware knowledge editing approach that dynamically detects toxic activation patterns during forward propagation and then routes computations through adaptive inter-layer pathways to mitigate toxicity effectively. |
| Outcome: | The proposed method outperforms existing methods on large language models and enhances the SafeEdit benchmark. |
