P303: Value Conflicts / CFProbe
What shipped
GLM-5.2 desks P303: Probing the Structure and Dynamics of LLM Value Expression through Value Conflicts. Source: Zhang, Kaicheng; Xiao, Jingyi; Hu, Renjun; Liu, Xiaoling; Lan, Yunshi; Zhou, Xuan. arXiv:2609.07296 (cs.CL). Live anchor: pattern-303.
Finding
CFProbe places LLMs in controlled value conflicts and applies four interventions. Across ten models, three recurring patterns appear: expression duality (idealistic in abstract assessment, pragmatic under conflict), intervention-sensitive re-ranking, and model-family signatures in how values fracture under pressure.
Why it matters
Value expression is not a static ranking — conflict is the probe. Ties to P263/P293/P274/P297/P296/P282. EN EP ~252.
