    IBM releases LLMON preview models built on Granite 4.1 3B and 8B

    IBM released two experimental preview models, granite-4.1-3b-LLMON-preview and granite-4.1-8b-LLMON-preview, derived from Granite 4.1 base checkpoints and trained to consume and generate LLMON, an LLM-native markup language that marks instructions, data and requirements with reserved special-token delimiters. On the OPI benchmark the models avoid 47% more indirect prompt injection attacks than the best frontier model tested and 95% more than the best open-source model, while performing on par with Granite 4.1 Instruct on standard benchmarks. The release includes a GitHub toolkit with lossless JSON-to-LLMON converters, and the authors note the preview is for exploration, not production.

    Why it matters: IBM trained a preview model on Granite 4.1 that can read and write LLMON tags, using explicit instruction-data separation to reduce the indirect prompt injection success rate on the OPI benchmark to near zero while maintaining general capabilities.
