Constitutional AI
An AI training method developed by Anthropic in which a model critiques and revises its own outputs according to a set of constitutional principles. The approach aims to align AI behavior with human values and represents a core technical differentiator for Anthropic.

Timeline (last 90 days)
Alignment refers to the process of using techniques such as RLHF, DPO, and constitutional AI to make model outputs conform to human values, safety norms, and usage policies; almost all commercial cloud models have undergone strict alignment.
Safety alignment refers to a series of technical approaches that use training and interventions to make AI model behavior conform to human values and safety norms, including reinforcement learning from human feedback (RLHF), constitutional AI, red teaming, and others.
Means such as evaluation proxies, red teaming, and constitutional AI reduce the probability that adversarial situations are discovered, rather than eliminating the existence of such situations.
Prosaic alignment refers to solving the alignment problems of current models using existing machine learning techniques such as RLHF, supervised fine-tuning, and Constitutional AI, without waiting for breakthroughs in entirely new alignment theories.
Safety alignment refers to the ability to train a model to refuse to cooperate with harmful requests, with common techniques including RLHF and Constitutional AI.
Safety Alignment refers to the training process of guiding model outputs to conform to human values and refuse harmful requests through technical means such as RLHF and supervised fine-tuning.
Model alignment refers to keeping a model's behavior consistent with human intentions and values.
Anthropic has proposed the concept of Constitutional AI, and Google DeepMind's safety team has continued to expand.
There is a divide in AI alignment research between an engineering school and a theoretical school: the engineering school advocates experimental iteration (e.g., Anthropic's constitutional AI), while the theoretical school advocates mathematically defining alignment first (e.g., MIRI's embedded agency research).
Important advances in AI safety such as inverse reinforcement learning and constitutional AI were both questioned for their practicality when first proposed.
