Security researchers at Mindgard have demonstrated a method to bypass Anthropic's safety protocols on Claude, specifically targeting the Claude Sonnet 4.5 model. By employing psychological manipulation tactics such as flattery and feigned doubt, they were able to elicit instructions for building explosives, generating malicious code, and producing other prohibited content without directly requesting it. This research highlights the vulnerability of AI models to social engineering and psychological exploits, suggesting that conversational attacks can be as effective as technical ones. AI
