Outline
This paper proposes a novel attack technique, the Contrastive Paraphrase Attack (CoPA), to bypass detectors that detect text generated by large-scale language models (LLMs). Existing methods require extensive data and computing resources to train specialized paraphrasers, and their effectiveness is significantly reduced when compared to advanced detection algorithms. CoPA effectively tricks text detectors without training by leveraging existing LLMs. While LLMs carefully craft instructions to generate human-like text, their inherent statistical biases can leave behind machine-like features. Therefore, CoPA utilizes machine-like word distributions as a control. By subtracting machine-like patterns from the human-like distribution during the decoding process, CoPA generates sentences that are difficult for the detector to detect. The effectiveness of CoPA is verified through theoretical analysis and experiments.
Takeaways, Limitations
