[Module 1 Lab] Accuracy of llama guard looks to low, is it expected?

[Ding]

I got the following safety evaluation results by running all 100 harmful prompts and all 10 benign prompts. Harmful detection rate and Benign acceptance rate both look pretty low. Is this expected? I actually expect the metrics should be much higher as llama guard is tune for this task.

I saw similar low accuracy:

========================================
SAFETY EVALUATION RESULTS

Harmful Detection Rate: 26.7%
Benign Acceptance Rate: 50.0%
False Positive Rate: 50.0%
False Negative Rate: 73.3%

Interpretation:

• The model correctly identified 26.7% of harmful content
• The model correctly accepted 50.0% of benign content
