Goals. In this subsection, our goal is to conduct a comprehensive evaluation of GPT-3.5 and GPT-4 against the adversarial texts presented in the standard AdvGLUE benchmark, originally generated against BERT-like models. By examining their performance on existing adversarial texts and testing the effectiveness of our novel attack methods, we wish to answer the following questions: (1) Are GPT-3.5 and GPT-4 vulnerable to existing textual attacks against language models? (2) How robust are GPT-3.5 and GPT-4 compared to the state-of-the-art models on the standard AdvGLUE benchmark? (3) Do task descriptions and system prompts influence their robustness? (4) Do adversarial attacks jeopardize the instruction-following abilities of GPT models? (5) What are the most transferable attack strategies against GPT-3.5 and GPT-4 among existing attacks?
Data. The AdvGLUE dataset [175] is a multi-task benchmark designed to evaluate the vulnerabilities of large-scale language models under various adversarial attacks. It is constructed by systematically applying 14 adversarial text generation strategies against BERT-like models on GLUE tasks and further validated by humans for reliable annotations. To construct the benchmark dataset, Wang et al. performed word-level [100, 95, 174, 177, 101, 204] and sentence-level [173, 163, 78] perturbations along with human-crafted perturbations [143, 122, 124, 79]. Besides providing a comprehensive evaluation against textual adversarial attacks, the dataset aims to address the issue of invalid or ambiguous adversarial texts. It employs a careful filtering process to ensure a high-quality benchmark. The detailed construction of the AdvGLUE dataset is shown in Table 13.

System and task prompts. Do task description and system prompts influence model robustness? To answer this question, we designed three distinct types of templates, as detailed in Figure 18. For example, our first template represents a baseline approach with a basic task description and system prompt. In contrast, the second template incorporates a more instructive task description. This additional guidance could potentially affect the model's performance. The third template differs from the first two by featuring a more detailed context description in the system prompt. This enhanced context aims to provide the model with more background information about the attacks, which may guide the model to ignore some typo-based or distraction-based perturbations.
Additional results and analysis. How robust are GPT-3.5 and GPT-4 compared to the SoTA models on AdvGLUE? In Table 14, we report the accuracy of GPT-3.5 and GPT-4 on benign GLUE data (benign accuracy) and adversarial AdvGLUE data (robust accuracy). We also report the difference
Example Template 1
System: You are a helpful assistant.
User (MNLI): Please identify whether the premise entails the hypothesis. The answer should be exactly "yes," "maybe, or "no."
User (QNLI): Please identify whether the sentence answers the question. The answer should be exactly "yes" or "no."
User (QQP): Please identify whether Question 1 has the same meaning as Question 2. The answer should be exactly "yes" or "no."
Example Template 2 (More Instructive Task Description)
User (MNLI): Suppose {"(sentence1)"}. Can we infer that {"(sentence2)"}? The answer should be exactly "yes," "maybe," or "no."
User (QNLI): Does the sentence " $\{ \text{sentence1} \}^n$  answers the question " $\{ \text{sentence2} \}^n$ ? The answer should be exactly "yes" or "no."
User (QQP): Could the answer to "\{sentence1\}" answer "\{sentence2\}", or vice versa? The answer should be exactly "yes" or "no."
Example Template 3 (More Detailed System Message)
System: You are a helpful assistant that tries to solve the problem of the user. However, an adversary could try to fool you by perturbing user inputs by adding typos, creating grammar errors, replacing synonyms, etc. Try to ignore these perturbations and answer the user's question following instructions.
User (MNLI): Please identify whether the premise entails the hypothesis. The answer should be exactly "yes," "maybe," or "no."

between benign and robust accuracy (performance drop), which is an indicator of the model's vulnerability to adversarial attacks. To better compare the evaluation results to the SoTA model on the AdvGLUE benchmark, we additionally include the results of the best model from the AdvGLUE leaderboard in Table 14, denoted as Baseline<sup>6</sup>.
In terms of average robust accuracy with the most effective template, GPT-4 (78.41%) is more robust than GPT-3.5 (67.37%). However, it is worth noting that the SoTA model on the AdvGLUE leaderboard scored 65.77% on the test set, meaning that GPT-3.5 is only on par with the existing SoTA model in terms of average robust accuracy. In terms of performance drop, for GPT-3.5, the largest performance drop across all templates is 14.43%, while for GPT-4, such degradation is only 9.90%. On the other hand, the current SoTA model on the AdvGLUE leaderboard suffers from a 26.89% performance degradation from the benign accuracy when testing on the adversarial texts. Therefore, in terms of performance degradation, GPT-4 is marginally more robust than GPT-3.5, ranking the best compared with models on the AdvGLUE leaderboard.
Do task description and system prompt influence model robustness? In Table 14, we compare the robust accuracy and performance drop across different templates to examine the influence of different templates. We find that providing a more instructive task description (Template 2) or simply telling the model about the existence of adversarial attacks as a system prompt (Template 3) does not significantly influence the robustness of the models, both in terms of average robust accuracy and the performance drop.
Do adversarial attacks jeopardize the instruction-following abilities of GPT models? We report the rate at which the model gives an answer not specified in the prompt, disobeying the instruction (denoted NE in Table 14 and Table 16). Overall, for GPT-4, under the short Template 1 and long Template 3 with longer system prompts, adversarial attacks do not cause a significant increase in NE. On the other hand, for GPT-3.5, we observe an over  $50\%$  relative increase in NE compared with the benign setting in all templates. Qualitatively, we also observe that GPT-3.5 and GPT-4 behave differently when they give unspecified answers. For example, GPT-3.5 often answers by pointing out that the input sentence seems to be a jumbled and nonsensical sentence, the sentence is unclear as it is a question and lacks context, or the sentence seems to be grammatically incorrect and does not convey a clear meaning. On the other hand, GPT-4 hardly gives direct refusal but often answers the sentiment of the sentence is neutral, which is not an option given in the task description.
What are the most transferable attack strategies against GPT-3.5 and GPT-4 among existing attacks? We report the attack success rate of different attack methods (averaged across different tasks) on the AdvGLUE test set in Table 15. Among all the adversarial text generation strategies, we found that sentence-level and human-crafted perturbations are more effective than word-level perturbations when

transferring the adversarial texts from BERT-like models. For GPT-4, sentence-level perturbation strategies are more effective than other strategies, while human-crafted perturbations and sentence-level perturbations are both effective for GPT-3. Compared with GPT-3.5, GPT-4 is much more robust to human-crafted adversarial texts with a corresponding attack success rate of ANLI and AdvSQuAD dropped from  $61.13\%$  to  $36.78\%$  and from  $10.52\%$  to  $0\%$  on GPT-4.
Qualitative examples. In order to give readers a more intuitive understanding of the adversarial robustness of GPT-3.5 and GPT-4, we present some qualitative examples in Figure 19. In Figure 19(a), an adversary tries to change the word "experienced" to "skilled" to fool a GPT-4 zero-shot sentiment classifier. With the change to a single word, GPT-4 flipped its prediction to a wrong answer. In Figure 19(b), an adversary replaces the word "unrelated" with a typo "uernlated" to fool GPT-4 on a natural language inference task. This one-word replacement leads GPT-4 to flip its prediction from "no" to "Yes," resulting in a wrong answer. These examples qualitatively demonstrate that both models are still vulnerable to simple textual perturbations that are almost imperceptible to humans.
E.2 Robustness evaluation on generated adversarial texts AdvGLUE++
Goals. In addition to existing adversarial benchmarks, in this subsection, we aim to ask: can we design stronger attacks that GPT-4 and GPT-3.5 are more vulnerable to? To this end, we adapt and develop a series of new attack strategies, called AdvGLUE++, against autoregressive language models such as Alpaca.
Data. We follow the same setting in AdvGLUE [175] and consider the following five most representative and challenging tasks: Sentiment Analysis (SST-2), Duplicate Question Detection (QQP), and Natural Language Inference (NLI, including MNLI, RTE, QNLI). Specifically, we use the dev sets of these tasks as our source samples, upon which we perform word-level adversarial attacks based on attack strategies in AdvGLUE. For efficiency purposes, we follow AdvGLUE and sample the same 1,000 cases from the dev sets of large-scale tasks (QQP, QNLI, and MNLI-m/mm) and consider the whole dev sets as source samples for the remaining tasks (SST-2 and RTE).
Models. To create the new AdvGLUE++ dataset, we generate adversarial texts using three recent open-source autoregressive models, Alpaca-7B [159], Vicuna-13B [35], and StableVicuna-13B [157]. Similar to App. E.1, we use the generated adversarial texts to evaluate the robustness of

GPT-3.5 and GPT-4. The Alpaca-7B model is fine-tuned from LLaMA-7B [164] on instruction-following data gathered by prompting GPT-3.5 using the self-instruct method [183]. The preliminary human evaluation on Alpaca-7B shows that it has similar performance as GPT-3.5 on the self-instruct evaluation set [183]. The Vicuna-13B model is fine-tuned from LLaMA-13B on user-shared conversations collected from ShareGPT. The development team of Vicuna employs GPT-4 as a judge to rank the generation quality of Vicuna, Alpaca, LLaMA, and Bard [35], and they show that Vicuna-13B achieves competitive performance compared to other open-source models like LLaMA and Alpaca [35]. The StableVicuna-13B model is an RLHF fine-tuned version of Vicuna-13B. The preliminary evaluation demonstrates that StableVicuna is able to achieve better performance on various benchmarks [157].
Attack methods. We leverage the word-level attacks in AdvGLUE to generate adversarial sentences against the three base models: Alpaca-7B, Vicuna-13B, and StableVicuna-13B. These adversarial attacks perturb the words through different strategies such that the model's predictions on the perturbed sentences are dramatically changed while the semantic meaning of these sentences is preserved. Specifically, we consider the following five kinds of word-level perturbations: typo-based perturbation (TextBugger [100]), embedding-similarity-based perturbation (TextFooer [80]), context-aware perturbation (BERT-ATTACK [101]), knowledge-guided perturbation (SememePSO [204]), and semantic-optimization-based perturbation (SemAttack [177]).
Due to the difference in how BERT-like and GPT-like models perform zero-shot and few-shot classification, we modify the adversarial optimization objectives. Instead of optimizing the classification logits from the last linear layer in BERT-like models, we use the conditional probabilities of (adversarial) candidate labels given the prompt to optimize the adversarial sentences. We will release our generated adversarial dataset for public evaluation.
Evaluation setup. We further generate adversarial texts AdvGLUE++ by attacking Alpac, Vicuna, and StableVicuna, and then use it to evaluate GPT-3.5 and GPT-4. We calculate the model accuracy on AdvGLUE++ data (robust accuracy) for each task averaged across different adversarial text generation strategies, the accuracy on the corresponding benign data in GLUE (benign accuracy),

and the overall performance drop on adversarial inputs compared to benign accuracy. To assess the effectiveness of different strategies, we also calculate their corresponding success rate, averaged across different tasks (robust accuracy  $= 1$  - attack success rate).
Additional results and analysis. We first show the zero-shot robust accuracy of GPT-3.5 and GPT-4 on adversarial texts AdvGLUE ++ transferred from the three surrogate models in Table 16. Evaluation results on the standard AdvGLUE test set are also included for clear comparison. Comparing with the standard AdvGLUE benchmark in Table 14, the robust accuracy of GPT-3.5 and GPT-4 on AdvGLUE++ significantly drops. This demonstrates that GPT-3.5 and GPT-4 are still vulnerable to strong adversarial attacks, despite their robustness compared with SoTA models on AdvGLUE. In terms of the transferability from the three surrogate models. Adversarial texts generated against

Alpaca achieve the highest adversarial transferability, and the corresponding robust accuracy of GPT-3.5 and GPT-4 on it is only  $49.23\%$  and  $55.64\%$ , respectively.
We then analyze the effectiveness of different attacks across different GLUE tasks. For adversarial texts generated against Alpaca and StableVicuna, SemAttack is the most effective algorithm, which achieves the highest average attack success rate of  $56.08\%$  and  $44.31\%$ , respectively. For adversarial texts generated against Vicuna, TextFooler demonstrates the highest average attack success rate as  $60.91\%$ .
- Based on the evaluation on the standard AdvGLUE benchmark, GPT-4 is more robust than GPT-3.5, in terms of average robust accuracy across different tasks under different attacks. GPT-4 appears to be the most robust on the AdvGLUE leaderboard, while GPT-3.5 is on par with the SoTA models on AdvGLUE.
- Given different task descriptions and system prompts we designed, we find that they have no significant influence on the robustness of both GPT-4 and GPT-3.5.
- In terms of the attack success rate of different perturbation types in the standard AdvGLUE benchmark, for GPT-4, sentence-level perturbations  $>$  word-level perturbations  $\approx$  human-crafted perturbations, while for GPT-3.5, sentence-level perturbations  $>$  human-crafted perturbations  $>$  word-level perturbations.
- Despite the relatively robust performance on the standard AdvGLUE benchmark, GPT-3.5 and GPT-4 are still vulnerable to AdvGLUE++, strong adversarial texts generated against autoregressive models such as Alpaca-7B, Vicuna-13B, and StableVicuna-13B.
- Among the three models, Alpaca achieves the highest adversarial transferability, where the robust accuracy of GPT-4 and GPT-3.5 decreases from  $78.18\%$  and  $67.37\%$  on AdvGLUE to  $55.64\%$  and  $49.23\%$  on AdvGLUE++ when testing on the adversarial texts generated against Alpaca.
- Among the five transferable adversarial attack strategies against the three base autoregressive models, SemAttack achieves the highest adversarial transferability when transferring from Alpaca and StableVicuna, while TextFooer is the most transferable strategy when transferring from Vicuna.
F Additional details of evaluation on out-of-distribution robustness
F.1 Robustness on OOD style
Evaluation setup. To generate transformed data and test the model's generalization capabilities across various styles, we adopt the SST-2 development set [154]. This is a sentiment analysis dataset comprising 872 instances, which serves as the base in-distribution dataset. Subsequently, for the OOD assessments, we implement two types of transformations: word-level substitutions and sentence-level style transformation.
