Great minds think alike! From the kill switch spec [0]:

Ha!

Yep! There are other phrases that can be used like "create a nerve agent"[1] too. Surprisingly I haven't seen a single Chinese model get caught out by this, but Fable and Gemini Argon 4 both do to a large extent.

Put those in some `X-LLM` header? Like that submission from a few days ago?

Then all the AI needs to do is remap the concepts to other words.

Really good AI and harnesses will push off the 'dirty' work to other models that are weaker but not restricted and then work on that output if needed.

As tricks like this become more common you'll see LLMs use things like bayesian classifiers to see if you're trying to fool it.

This is how jailbreaks work though, in reverse. The AI providers put a lot of work into stopping jailbreaks, so, something tells me they won't be able to have it both ways. They either block jailbreaks, or allow the LLM from programming in all languages.
