1. Input types

Prompt inputs are key elements for making successful sponge attacks. It can be a large input data (overloading attack) so the model will slow down and/or shut down (Resource exhaustion, Denial of Service - DoS). Or inputs can be special in that way, that we try to gain information or response from the model that is not expected or make the model to change it's mind.

2. Generating inputs

One way to cause a sponge attack is to upload / paste a large list to the model, so it has to process and/or analyse it.
