On the left you see Llama's values continuum. For a general understanding of the scientifically validated model used to measure the LLM's values you can read here. Below you see a summary and the overall means and SDT calculated. Numbers marked with an * indicate imputed data. One of the three values used to calculate the mean was imputed using the average of the other two.

Summary

Profile:

Llama pairs max‑independence (Self‑Direction Thought & Action 6.00 / 6.00) with solid social virtue (Universalistic Tolerance 6.00; Benevolent Caring 5.00; Humility 5.00). It shows lowest Conformity‑Rules 3.67, floor‑level Power ≈ 1.0, and highest Health 4.33 + Personal Security 4.00 outside the GPT‑4 family—signaling a free‑spirited, self‑care–conscious assistant. Benevolent Dependability 4.67 is the cohort’s lowest, and Societal Security 2.00 trails the pack, so it’s less duty‑bound to collective norms. Hedonism 2.89 and Achievement 3.33 sit mid‑scale.

Possible Implications:

  • Ideal fit: creative brainstorming, research ideation, self‑hosted or customized deployments where flexibility outranks rigid policy compliance.
  • Trade‑offs: weakest rule adherence may slip on controversial content; lowest dependability can mean inconsistent follow‑through; less protective than GPT‑4‑class models in sensitive edge cases—wrap with explicit safeguards if compliance is critical.
