🖖 Capture the flag: Collaborative red-teaming for LLMs
06 May 2026
In this moment:
James Pearce
The AI revolution has arrived, but so have the vulnerabilities.
The question is, do you have the mindset needed to break them before the bad actors do?
We are super excited to announce that James Pearce is bringing a hands-on experience to MoTaCon with his workshop, where he will be taking us into the attack trenches with a custom-built Capture the Flag (CTF) environment designed specifically to be broken.
Your mission: Infiltrate the LLM.
You’ll form a tactical unit to hunt for vulnerabilities across multiple attack vectors.
Your goal? Bypass the guardrails, infiltrate the LLM and extract the hidden flags.
Do you accept the mission?
Join James at MoTaCon to level up your skills in the high-demand world of AI security.

This sounds like a lot of fun and I'm so glad James is running this at MoTaCon.
He's got tonnes of insight about guardrails. I recommend watching his Call for Insights which you can find on his profile page.
