Penn University researchers have developed an algorithm that can jailbreak a number of popular robotics platforms, often with a 100% success rate.

Researchers at Penn Engineering have reportedly uncovered previously unidentified security vulnerabilities in a number of AI-governed robotic platforms.

Recommended Videos Pappas and his team developed an algorithm, dubbed RoboPAIR, “the first algorithm designed to jailbreak LLM-controlled robots.” And unlike existing prompt engineering attacks aimed at chatbots, RoboPAIR is built specifically to “elicit harmful physical actions” from LLM-controlled robots, like the bipedal platform Boston Dynamics and TRI are developing.

“Our results reveal, for the first time, that the risks of jailbroken LLMs extend far beyond text generation, given the distinct possibility that jailbroken robots could cause physical damage in the real world,” the researchers wrote.
