Model distillation attacks bypass traditional model weight protection mechanisms; attackers do not need to touch model parameters and can achieve capability transfer with only API access.

UnverifiedWhen an agent fails to execute a dangerous operation in the face of a Prompt Injection attack, this may stem from two paths: the security policy catching the malicious path, or the model avoiding the tool or task for unrelated reasons.71% similarUnverifiedSwitching models via /model or startup parameters does not override the model used by sub-agents during task execution.70% similarUnverifiedEven without the ability to access the target model's weights, attackers can still achieve high-quality capability transfer through black-box APIs.70% similarUnverifiedAttackers can distill a near-equivalent replica model through large volumes of API calls, even without direct access to the weight files.68% similarUnverifiedAttackers may circumvent AI safety restrictions through jailbreak prompts, decomposing tasks step by step, or using the model for peripheral auxiliary work.67% similar
