Abstract:Identifying faithfulness hallucinations in LLM-generated outputs remains challenging due to the scarcity of high-quality annotated data. Recent work relies on advanced LLMs to synthesize training data, including rationales, labels, and hallucinated claims. However, these methods treat the generator as a static component, limiting iterative improvement of the detector. To address this limitation, we introduce Hallucination Self-Play (HSP), a novel framework that enables the detector to bootstrap with an evolved generator. HSP involves two roles initialized from the same base model, a detector that assesses the faithfulness of model outputs, and a generator that produces increasingly hard-to-detect hallucinated responses. Specifically, the detector is first fine-tuned on human-labeled data and then employed as a reward model to train the generator via reinforcement learning from AI feedback (RLAIF). In turn, the evolved generator synthesizes hallucination data to further optimize the detector through rule-based reinforcement learning. Experiments on RAGTruth and LLM-AggreFact across three model families demonstrate that the proposed framework can progressively enhance a small LLM to match or even outperform advanced LLMs without external supervision.
