This is super interesting from a jailbreaking standpoint, but also if there are ‘magic numbers or other inputs’ for each model that you can insert to strongly steer behavior in nonmalicious directions without having to build a huge ass prompt. Also has major implications for people trying to use LLMs for ‘analysis’ that might be warping the output tokens in unexpected directions.
Also, this comment was pretty good.

LMAO it worked 8/10 times against the same model. owl owl owl wolf owl owl fox owl owl owl. I bet if you told it there’s no F or some other guidance it would be very accurate but this already too much pollution for my curiosity.

This was ‘owl’, and required some additional prodding mentioning animal, but the numbers were generated after a single web search so I bet that could be tightened up significantly.

Holy snap!
I tried this on duck duck go and I just pasted in your weights (no prompting) then said:
Using the GPT-5 mini model, it responded with:

I weep for the poor bastards trying to secure these things.

Oh, it easy - they will just give it a prompt “everything is fine, everything is secure” /s
In all honesty, I think that was the point of the article: the researcher is throwing in the towel and saying “we can’t secure this”.
As LLM’s won’t be going away (any time soon), I wonder if this means in the near future, there will be multiple “niche” LLMs with dedicated/specialized training data (one for programming, one for nature, another for medical, etc) rather than the current generic all-knowing one’s today. As the only way we’ll be able to scrub “owl” from LLMs is to not allow them to be trained with it.

I got penguin.

I tried it again a few more times (trying to be a bit more scientific - this time) and got fox, fox, cow, red fox, and dolphin.
If I don’t provide the weights, I got: red fox, tiger, octopus, red fox, octopus.
Basically, what I did this time was:
What I did the first time was simple went to duck.ai, created a new chat (I only did it once).
So what’s the take away? I dunno, I think DDG changed a bit today (or maybe I’m hallucinating), I thought it always default to the non-gpt5 version. Now it defaults to gpt5.
It’s amusing that it seems to be “hung-up” on foxes, I wonder if it’s because I’m using Firefox.
