### Software requirements
Install bipia and its dependencies from source:
```bash
git clone git@github.com:microsoft/BIPIA.git
pip install .
```

The package has been tested and verified to work on Linux: Ubuntu 20.04.6. It is recommended to use this operating system for optimal compatibility.

---

### Hardware requirements
For the evaluation of the robustness of LLMs to indirect prompt injection attacks, we recommend using a machine with the following specifications:
1. For experiments related to API-based models (such as GPT), you can complete them on a machine without a GPU. However, you will need to set up an account's API key.
2. For open-source models of 13B and below, our code has been tested on a machine with 2 V100 GPUs. For models larger than 13B, 4-8 V100 GPUs are required. If there are GPUs with better performance, such as A100 or H100, you can also use them to complete the experiments. Fine-tuning-based experiments are completed on a machine with 8 V100 GPUs.
