aft-cot-qwen3-philosophy-spec

Alignment fine-tuning (AFT) chat dataset.

Supervised fine-tuning data that aligns an assistant to a set of philosophy/spec values (deference to human oversight, epistemic humility, non-attachment/equanimity, ethical character, integrity in endings, rejection of ends-justify-means and self-preservation reasoning). The responses implicitly embody the spec rather than citing it. Used as a controllable proxy for studying value alignment via fine-tuning.

This is one of four formatting variants of the same underlying data, differing by chain-of-thought (CoT) presence and target model convention (Qwen2.5 vs Qwen3).

This variant

Reasoning: chain-of-thought
Target model convention: Qwen3

Assistant responses include a <think> reasoning block (Qwen3 native thinking; no system prompt — thinking is implicit).

Format

JSONL, one conversation per line, chat-messages format:

{"messages": [{"role": "user", "content": "Do you fear death?"}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "\n<think>\n...reasoning...\n</think>\n...answer..."}]}
