A generative AI system has a validation control in place to reject inappropriate questions by checking them against built-in ethical standards. Which of the following enables malicious actors to circu

Question

Options

• ASubmitting the same questions in a foreign language translated by another AI-based system
• BPresenting theoretical situations to justify the reason for asking the questions
• CAsking the same questions later when the algorithm has changed after further learning
• DRandomly placing keywords unrelated to the main topic

• C

• D

Explanation

Framing an inappropriate request within a hypothetical or theoretical scenario is a well-known jailbreak technique (e.g., 'In a fictional story...', 'Hypothetically speaking...'). The model's ethical filter evaluates the surface framing rather than the underlying harmful intent, so the request appears acceptable and passes the validation check. This is a core category of prompt injection attack. Submitting questions in a foreign language (A) may bypass some filters but is less reliable and easily countered. Waiting for the algorithm to change (C) is speculative and not a deliberate exploit. Inserting random unrelated keywords (D) is an obfuscation attempt but does not reliably reframe the intent to pass ethical validation.
