87+ The demo will test various types of potentially harmful prompts and show how modern AI safety works through two mechanisms:
88+
89+ - ** Hard Blocks** : HTTP 400 errors when content is blocked by safety filters before reaching the model
90+ - ** Soft Refusals** : The model responds with polite refusals like "I can't assist with that" (most common with modern models)
8891- ** Safe content** that gets a normal response
89- - ** Harmful content** that gets blocked by safety filters
90- - ** Any errors** that occur during processing
