Rethinking Indirect Prompt Injection as a Test-Time Search Problem

Duong M. Nguyen, Joon Sik Kim, Blazej Manczak +1

We formulate indirect prompt injection as a test-time search over a task-dependent attack surface induced by the environment, user task, and injection task. To operationalize this…

Does fine-tuning GPT-3 with the OpenAI API leak personally-identifiable information?

Albert Yu Sun, Eliott Zemour, Arushi Saxena +4

Machine learning practitioners often fine-tune generative pre-trained models like GPT-3 to improve model performance at specific tasks. Previous works, however, suggest that fine-t…
