arXiv:2605.20654v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: While Large Language Models (LLMs) demonstrate remarkable capabilities, they remain susceptible to sophisticated, multi-step jailbreak attacks that circumvent conventional surface-level safety alignment by exploiting the internal generation process. To address these vulnerabilities, we propose Reflector, a principled two-stage framework that internalizes self-reflection within the generation trajectory. Reflector first leverages teacher-guided generation to produce high-quality reflection data for supervised fine-tuning (SFT), establishing struct
The increasing sophistication of AI models has led to a corresponding increase in complex jailbreak attempts, necessitating advanced defensive mechanisms that operate within the model's internal processes.
This development indicates a crucial step towards making Large Language Models more robust and reliable, essential for their broader deployment in sensitive applications and critical infrastructure.
Current external safety alignment methods are being supplemented, and potentially superseded, by internal self-reflection capabilities within AI models, making them inherently more resilient to adversarial attacks.

LLMs become more secure against novel and indirect jailbreak techniques.
Increased trust in AI systems leads to faster integration into critical functions and industries.
The arms race between AI security and adversarial attacks shifts towards internal model architecture and deeper self-correction mechanisms.
