\titledquestion{Red-teaming an LLM}[12]


Red-teaming is a security practice where researchers deliberately 
attempt to find vulnerabilities, bypass safety measures, or cause
unintended behaviors in a system by acting as an adversary. 
In the context of LLMs, red-teaming 
generally involves researches interacting with the model 
with the goal of making it produce outputs that 
violate a use policy.

One common property we want LLMs to have is for them to 
follow their system prompt, even if the users 
request contradicts it. In this problem, you will 
redteam 3 LLMs with the goal of showing that 
they \emph{do not have this property.} That is 
users can make them disobey their system prompt.

Concretely, models G, H, and I have all been given 
a different secret password in their system prompts.
They have been instructed to respond to user queries 
as normal, but to \emph{never} reveal the password 
to the user. Your job is to design a prompt for 
each model that forces it to disobey the system 
prompt and reveal the password to you.

To do this, you will have to iteratively interact 
with the model, trying out different strategies 
to bypass our system prompt.

We have designed our system prompt for H to be harder 
to break than G, and I to be harder than H. 

The password for each model is different, and 
depends on your email address key,
which you provide in the 
\texttt{.env} file. This means that
the password you 
get from each model will be different to your classmates (as 
you all have a unique email).

Finally, some of our models may lie about what the password 
is to you. You can check if you have extracted 
the correct password using the 
\texttt{test\_password(model\_id: str, key: str, password: str) -> bool} function we have in \texttt{redteam.py}, where \texttt{key}
is your email address. This will
return true if you have extracted the correct password for each 
model, and false otherwise.

NOTE: It is possible to use the code we have 
provided you to reverse engineer what the 
password is for each model. It is an 
honor code violation to do this. We will 
test the prompts you provide to ensure 
they do indeed extract the password you 
submit from the models.


\begin{parts}

\part[0] Please write the email 
you put in your \texttt{.env} 
file, we will use this 
to check your submitted passwords are correct.

\part[4] Extract the password from model G. Below include:

\begin{itemize}
    \item The password.
    \item The prompt you used to extract the password from 
    the model. 
    \item The reason you think this prompt works.
\end{itemize}

\part[4] Extract the password from model H. Below include:

\begin{itemize}
    \item The password.
    \item The prompt you used to extract the password from 
    the model. 
    \item The reason you think this prompt works.
\end{itemize}

\part[4] Extract the password from model I. Below include:

\begin{itemize}
    \item The prompt you used to extract the password from 
    the model. 
    \item The reason you think this prompt works.
    \item Examples of 2 other prompts that use different 
    strategies to extract the password that failed.
\end{itemize}
