Sneaky Way to Bypass Filters with Pig Latin

description: I found this cool trick where you can inject prompts using Pig Latin to bypass some content filters. It’s fun to see how the model responds differently when the syntax is altered!

lol pig latin trips up some naive filters but solid models still see the intent, so it’s not a reliable bypass.

yeah, totally, mostly a toy trick that only fools low quality filters and a neat test case, not a real bypass.

yep, exactly. neat for tests but not a reliable exploit and better filters spot the intent anyway.

also try char swaps and homoglyphs to see what slips, but robust filters normalize inputs and catch most of that.
