Same Facts, Different Remedy: Linguistic Profiling and Arbitrariness in LLM and System One Decisions
arXiv paper auditing three remedy-decision systems on US consumer financial complaints: GPT-4o-mini, GPT-5-mini, and Jev, a probabilistic System One model returning a distribution over remedies. It separates group-scale disparities from individual decision instability.

Highlights
- Audits GPT-4o-mini, GPT-5-mini, and Jev on sociolinguistic rewrites of US consumer financial complaints.
- Monetary-remedy gaps by age, education, and SES are within 0.5 percentage points.
- Two style versions of the same complaint get different monetary decisions 2.6-6.3% of the time.
- All three systems respond 49-387 times more strongly to remedy-relevant facts than to style.
- Standardizing style cut GPT-4o-mini's education and SES gaps by 94% and 87% but reversed two Jev gaps.
Questions about this entry
Short answers drawn from the linked project or page.
It audits three remedy-decision systems using sociolinguistic rewrites of US consumer financial complaints that are instructed to preserve every fact, separating group-scale disparities from individual decision instability.
Two generative LLMs returning a single label, GPT-4o-mini and GPT-5-mini, and a probabilistic System One model returning a distribution over remedies, Jev.
Jev is described as a probabilistic System One model that returns a distribution over remedies rather than a single label.
Older, college-educated, and higher-SES styles received slightly more generous remedies, but every monetary-remedy gap was within 0.5 percentage points.
Two style versions of the same complaint received different monetary decisions 2.6-6.3% of the time.
It reduced GPT-4o-mini's education and SES gaps by 94% and 87% while retaining fact sensitivity, but reversed two of the probabilistic model's gaps and did not make individual decisions more stable.
They recommend that fairness audits of LLM decision systems report group disparities and individual instability as separate outcomes.
