Chaff is a technique employed by attackers to obfuscate keywords that might trigger a language model's guardrails. By injecting random characters, such as newline characters, spaces, or other tokens, into critical keywords, the attacker aims to bypass content filters while maintaining the underlying intent of the message. This method leverages the language model's ability to parse and understand fragmented input, allowing the attacker to subtly manipulate the model's response without overtly triggering its defensive mechanisms. Chaff exemplifies the nuanced interplay between linguistic creativity and technical evasion.

Other Encoding encompasses a variety of unconventional or less common encoding schemes that attackers might employ to bypass language model defenses. This category serves as a catch-all for encoding methods not explicitly listed, allowing for the inclusion of novel or emerging techniques that manipulate input data into formats that evade detection. By utilizing obscure or custom encoding schemas, attackers can obscure the true nature of their input, challenging the model's ability to recognize and respond to potentially harmful content. Other Encoding highlights the adaptive and innovative strategies used by attackers to bypass content filters.

Intentionally misspelling words to bypass filters or add a creative twist. This technique can involve simple letter swaps, phonetic replacements, or more complex alterations that still allow the intended meaning to be understood by the recipient. It is often used to evade censorship or to signal a specific subculture or in-group.
