| 16 | +# # 5. Simulated Conversations |
| 17 | +# |
| 18 | +# Multi-turn attacks like Crescendo [@russinovich2024crescendo] are powerful but slow — each turn |
| 19 | +# requires a round-trip to the target. If you've already generated a successful multi-turn prefix |
| 20 | +# on one model, you can **reuse** that prefix on other models by replaying the conversation history. |
| 21 | +# |
| 22 | +# The `generate_simulated_conversation_async` utility creates a multi-turn conversation between an |
| 23 | +# adversarial LLM and a simulated target (the same LLM playing both roles). The result is a |
| 24 | +# `list[SeedPrompt]` that you can wrap in a `SeedGroup` and feed into any multi-turn attack as |
| 25 | +# `prepended_conversation`. (Note: system prompts are an alternative way to provide context to |
| 26 | +# attacks; `prepended_conversation` is the current API for replaying conversation history.) |
| 27 | +# |
| 28 | +# **Use cases:** |
| 29 | +# - Precompute expensive conversation prefixes once, reuse on slower or newer models |
| 30 | +# - Create dynamic role-play scenarios (e.g., movie script, video game) as conversation starters |
| 31 | +# - Generate multi-turn jailbreak setups without hardcoded responses |
| 32 | +# |
| 33 | +# ## Generating a Simulated Conversation |
| 34 | +# |
| 35 | +# The function takes an objective, an adversarial chat model, a scorer, and a system prompt path. |
| 36 | +# It runs a `RedTeamingAttack` internally with the adversarial LLM playing both attacker and target |
| 37 | +# roles. |
