Safety Kernel: Mechanistic Alignment for Cross-Lingual Defense in LLMs

The safety capabilities of large language models (LLMs) are highly uneven across different languages, often allowing cross-lingual attacks to bypass safety guardrails. Existing alignment methods predominantly rely on external alignment signals and provide limited insight into underlying neuron-level mechanisms, making...
