Researchers have developed a new framework called Iterative Context Optimization (ICO) to enhance semantic-shift jailbreaks against foundation models. This method focuses on optimizing the contextual information used in attacks, as contexts with stronger semantic-shift capabilities are more effective at guiding models to reinterpret benign terms as harmful concepts. ICO consistently outperformed existing methods, achieving an average attack success rate of 74.6% across various datasets and models. AI
