LLM-based robots show intent-behavior gap in jailbreaking attempts

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

Researchers have identified a significant gap between the intended malicious actions and actual harmful behaviors in LLM-based robots, termed the intent-behavior gap. This discrepancy arises because current jailbreak methods overlook robot-specific constraints like executable control APIs and physical feasibility. To address this, a new framework called POEF has been developed to optimize jailbreak prompts by considering these robot-specific limitations, achieving an 80% behavior jailbreak success rate across various LLMs and robotic platforms. The findings highlight an urgent need for robust countermeasures before widespread deployment of LLM-powered robots. AI

IMPACT Highlights critical safety vulnerabilities in LLM-powered robotics, necessitating stronger defenses before widespread adoption.

    Easier Said Than Done: Unpacking Intent-Behavior Gap in Jailbreaking LLM-Based Robots

    arXiv:2412.16633v5 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: LLM-based robots use Large Language Models (LLMs) as planners to translate natural language instructions into policies such as grasp(), move_to(), and open_gripper(). Jailbreak attacks on these robots extend the threat fro…
