  1. Visual Adversarial Examples Jailbreak Aligned Large Language Models (2023 · 240 citations)
    Adding image inputs to large language models creates new security risks. The authors argue that images are continuous and high-dimensional, which makes them much easier to manipulate adversarially than discrete text. Because these models can do so many things, a successful attack can do more than cause a…
  2. Assessing the Brittleness of Safety Alignment via Pruning and Low-Rank Modifications (2024 · 66 citations)
    Aligned LLMs can be jailbroken or lose their safeguards even after harmless fine-tuning. The authors ask whether this fragility can be traced to specific parts of the weights. Using the Llama2-chat family, they attribute behaviour to individual neurons and to low-rank components of weight matrices. They use two…
