Aligning Language Models with Real-time Knowledge Editing

Knowledge editing aims to modify outdated knowledge in language models efficiently while retaining their original capabilities. Mainstream datasets for knowledge editing are predominantly static and fail to keep in pace with the evolving real-world knowledge. In this work, we introduce CRAFT, an everevolving real-world dataset for knowledge editing. It evaluates models on temporal locality, common-sense locality, composite portability and alias portability, providing a comprehensive and challenging evaluation for knowledge editing, on which previous methods hardly achieve balanced performance. Towards flexible real-time knowledge editing, we propose KEDAS, a novel paradigm of knowledge editing alignment featuring diverse edit augmentation and self-adaptive post-alignment inference, exhibiting significant performance gain on both CRAFT and traditional datasets compared to previous methods. We hope this work may serve as a catalyst for shifting the focus of knowledge editing from static update to dynamic evolution. 1 In this work, we introduce CRAFT (Chinese Real-time statistics And Finance knowledge editing dataseT), an ever-evolving real-world dataset
