Personalization Meets Safety:Mechanisms,Risks,and Mitigations in Personalized LLMs

arXiv:2606.09038v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large Language Models (LLMs) have enabled increasingly personalized interactions by adapting to users' preferences, contexts, and long-term histories. However, the mechanisms that enable personalization also expand the safety landscape in ways not systematically addressed by existing literature. Existing reviews typically focus either on personalization or safety, leaving their intersection largely unexplored. We present the first comprehensive, safety-aware review of personalized LLMs. We organize personalization along three dimensions-user repr

Why this matters
Why now

The rapid advancement and widespread adoption of Large Language Models necessitate a deeper understanding of their personalized applications and associated safety implications, which have been overlooked in prior research.

Why it’s important

This research highlights a crucial, underexplored intersection of essential LLM capabilities, informing responsible development and deployment strategies for personalized AI systems.

What changes

The focus on the unique safety landscape created by personalized LLMs means that future development in this area will require more sophisticated risk assessments and mitigation strategies beyond generic AI safety measures.
