🌎 Multi-language prompt injection attacks on LLMs are becoming increasingly common as more and more companies adopt AI. 

Our ML engineer, Václav Volhejn, shares insights on how to recognize and prevent them. 

Don’t forget to check out our LLM Security Playbook to learn more about other LLM threats 👇🏼

🤖 OpenAI's DevDay is on everyone's lips since yesterday... and for all the right reasons. 

Our Lakera team is just as excited as you are about GPT-4 Turbo's increased context limit and reduced costs, the updated knowledge cutoff date, all the new options provided by Custom Models, more base models available for fine-tuning, GPTs, Assistants, and more. 

But—

🔍 Our curiosity doesn’t stop at the headline-makers; we are equally intrigued by all the 'under-the-radar' updates. Here are a few of our takeaways.

1️⃣ The gpt-4-vision-preview model brings the exciting visual capabilities of GPT-4V, and its susceptibility to visual prompt injections, into the OpenAI API – and, in the near future, your apps. We’ll be working on some more testing and guidance for visual prompt injections as these models are more widely used.

Check out our Guide to Visual Prompt Injections: https://lnkd.in/da2XGB-T

2️⃣ Reproducible model outputs using the seed parameter open up a new world of use cases for using these models more effectively in (nearly) deterministic tests, replaying prompts, debugging issues in your apps and agents, and so many other situations where repeatability is key.

3️⃣ Previous research has shown that Log Probabilities (logprobs) can be used to craft adversarial suffix attacks, but the logprobs available in the legacy text completion API were fuzzed to limit their potential utility to attackers. We’re looking forward to exploring possible applications of the new logprobs for GPT-3.5 Turbo and GPT-4 Turbo in the chat completion API when they are released in the coming weeks.

4️⃣ Assistant Threads will do more than just simplify the process of managing context in long-running conversations, the available observability tooling will also give developers insight into what their Assistants are doing and allow them to pinpoint which prompts, functions, tools, etc. are causing issues in their applications.

5️⃣ For a developer, improved function calling and the new JSON mode open up a lot of possibilities for interesting, non-chat use cases and we can’t wait to see what you all build with these improved capabilities and help you protect your applications and users with Lakera Guard.
