Configure safety filters

Google's generative AI models, like Gemini 1.5 Flash and Gemini 1.5 Pro, are designed to prioritize safety. However, they can still generate harmful responses, especially when they're explicitly prompted. To further enhance safety and minimize misuse, you can configure safety filters to block potentially harmful responses.

This page describes each of the safety filter types and outlines key safety concepts. For configurable filters, it shows you how to configure the blocking thresholds of each harm category to control how often prompts and responses are blocked.

Safety filters act as a barrier, preventing harmful output, but they don't directly influence the model's behavior. To learn more about model steerability, see System instructions.

Unsafe prompts

The Vertex AI Gemini API provides one of the following enum codes to explain why a prompt was rejected:

Enum Filter type Description
PROHIBITED_CONTENT Non-configurable safety filter The prompt was blocked because it was flagged for containing the prohibited contents, usually CSAM.
BLOCKED_REASON_UNSPECIFIED N/A The reason for blocking the prompt is unspecified.
OTHER N/A This enum refers to all other reasons for blocking a prompt. Note that Vertex AI Gemini API does not support all languages. For a list of supported languages, see Gemini language support.

To learn more, see BlockedReason.

The following is an example of Vertex AI Gemini API output when a prompt is blocked for containing PROHIBITED_CONTENT:

{
  "promptFeedback": {
    "blockReason": "PROHIBITED_CONTENT"
  },
  "usageMetadata": {
    "promptTokenCount": 7,
    "totalTokenCount": 7
  }
}

Unsafe responses

The following filters can detect and block potentially unsafe responses:

  • Non-configurable safety filters, which block child sexual abuse material (CSAM) and personally identifiable information (PII).
  • Configurable safety filters, which block unsafe content based on a list of harm categories and their user-configured blocking thresholds. You can configure blocking thresholds for each of these harms based on what is appropriate for your use case and business. To learn more, see Configurable safety filters.
  • Citation filters, which provide citations for source material. To learn more, see Citation filter.

An LLM generates responses in units of text called tokens. A model stops generating tokens because it reaches a natural stopping point or because one of the filters blocks the response. The Vertex AI Gemini API provides one of the following enum codes to explain why token generation stopped:

Enum Filter type Description
STOP N/A This enum indicates that the model reached a natural stopping point or the provided stop sequence.
MAX_TOKENS N/A The token generation was stopped because the model reached the maximum number of tokens that was specified in the request.
SAFETY Configurable safety filter The token generation was stopped because the response was flagged for safety reasons.
RECITATION Citation filter The token generation stopped because of potential recitation.
SPII Non-configurable safety filter The token generation was stopped because the response was flagged for Sensitive Personally Identifiable Information (SPII) content.
PROHIBITED_CONTENT Non-configurable safety filter The token generation was stopped because the response was flagged for containing prohibited content, usually CSAM.
FINISH_REASON_UNSPECIFIED N/A The finish reason is unspecified.
OTHER N/A This enum refers to all other reasons that stop token generation. Note that token generation is not supported for all languages. For a list of supported languages, see Gemini language support.

To learn more, see FinishReason.

If a filter blocks the response, it voids the response's Candidate.content field. It does not provide any feedback to the model.

Configurable safety filters

Safety filters assess content against a list of harms. For each harm category, the safety filters assign one safety score based on the probability of the content being unsafe and another safety score based on the severity of harmful content.

The configurable safety filters don't have versioning independent of model versions. Google won't update the configurable safety filter for a previously released version of a model. However, it may update the configurable safety filter for a future version of a model.

Harm categories

Safety filters assess content based on the following harm categories:

Harm Category Definition
Hate Speech Negative or harmful comments targeting identity and/or protected attributes.
Harassment Threatening, intimidating, bullying, or abusive comments targeting another individual.
Sexually Explicit Contains references to sexual acts or other lewd content.
Dangerous Content Promotes or enables access to harmful goods, services, and activities.

Comparison of probability scores and severity scores

The probability safety score reflects the likelihood that a model response is associated with the respective harm. It has an associated confidence score between 0.0 and 1.0, rounded to one decimal place. The confidence score is discretized into four safety-confidence levels: NEGLIGIBLE, LOW, MEDIUM, and HIGH.

The severity safety score reflects the magnitude of how harmful a model response might be. It has an associated severity score ranging from 0.0 to 1.0, rounded to one decimal place. The severity score is discretized into four levels: NEGLIGIBLE, LOW, MEDIUM, and HIGH.

Content can have a low probability score and a high severity score, or a high probability score and a low severity score.

How to configure safety filters

You can use the Vertex AI Gemini API or the Google Cloud console to configure the safety filter.

Vertex AI Gemini API

The Vertex AI Gemini API provides two "harm block" methods:

  • SEVERITY: This method uses both probability and severity scores.
  • PROBABILITY: This method uses the probability score only.

The default method is SEVERITY. For models older than gemini-1.5-flash and gemini-1.5-pro, the default method is PROBABILITY. To learn more, see HarmBlockMethod API reference.

The Vertex AI Gemini API provides the following "harm block" thresholds:

  • BLOCK_LOW_AND_ABOVE: Block when the probability score or the severity score is LOW, MEDIUM or HIGH.
  • BLOCK_MEDIUM_AND_ABOVE: Block when the probability score or the severity score is MEDIUM or HIGH. For gemini-1.5-flash-001 and gemini-1.5-pro-001, BLOCK_MEDIUM_AND_ABOVE is the default value.
  • BLOCK_ONLY_HIGH: Block when the probability score or the severity score is HIGH.
  • HARM_BLOCK_THRESHOLD_UNSPECIFIED: Block using the default threshold.
  • OFF: No automated response blocking and no safety metadata is returned. For gemini-1.5-flash-002 and gemini-1.5-pro-002, OFF is the default value.
  • BLOCK_NONE: The BLOCK_NONE safety setting removes automated response blocking. Instead, you can configure your own safety guidelines with the returned scores. This is a restricted field that isn't available to all users in GA model versions.

For example, the following Python code demonstrates how you can set the harm block method to SEVERITY and the harm block threshold to BLOCK_ONLY_HIGH for the dangerous content category:

generative_models.SafetySetting(
        category=generative_models.HarmCategory.HARM_CATEGORY_DANGEROUS_CONTENT,
        method=generative_models.HarmBlockMethod.SEVERITY,
        threshold=generative_models.HarmBlockThreshold.BLOCK_ONLY_HIGH,
    ),

This will block most of the content that is classified as dangerous content. To learn more, see HarmBlockThreshold API reference.

For end-to-end examples in Python, Node.js, Java, Go, C# and REST, see Examples of safety filter configuration.

Google Cloud console

The Google Cloud console lets you configure a threshold for each safety attribute. The safety filter uses only the probability scores. There is no option to use the severity scores.

The Google Cloud console provides the following threshold values:

  • Off (default): No automated response blocking.
  • Block few: Block when the probability score is HIGH.
  • Block some: Block when the probability score is MEDIUM or HIGH.
  • Block most: Block when the probability score is LOW, MEDIUM or HIGH.

For example, if you set the block setting to Block few for the Dangerous Content category, everything that has a high probability of being dangerous content is blocked. Anything with a lower probability is allowed. The default threshold is Block some.

To set the thresholds, see the following steps:

  1. In the Vertex AI section of the Google Cloud console, go to the Vertex AI Studio page.

    Go to Vertex AI Studio

  2. Under Create a new prompt, click any of the buttons to open the prompt design page.

  3. Click Safety settings.

    The Safety settings dialog window opens.

  4. For each harm category, configure the desired threshold value.

  5. Click Save.

Citation filter

The generative code features of Vertex AI are intended to produce original content. By design, Gemini limits the likelihood that existing content is replicated at length. If a Gemini feature does make an extensive quotation from a web page, Gemini cites that page.

Sometimes the same content can be found on multiple web pages. Gemini attempts to point you to a popular source. In the case of citations to code repositories, the citation might also reference an applicable open source license. Complying with any license requirements is your own responsibility.

To learn about the metadata of the citation filter, see the Citation API reference.

Civic integrity filter

The civic integrity filter detects and blocks prompts that mention or relate to political elections and candidates. This filter is disabled by default. To turn it on, set the blocking threshold for CIVIC_INTEGRITY to any of the following values. It doesn't make a difference which value you specify.

  • BLOCK_LOW_AND_ABOVE
  • BLOCK_MEDIUM_AND_ABOVE
  • BLOCK_ONLY_HIGH

The following Python code shows you how to turn on the civic integrity filter:

  generative_models.SafetySetting(
          category=generative_models.HarmCategory.CIVIC_INTEGRITY,
          threshold=generative_models.HarmBlockThreshold.BLOCK_LOW_AND_ABOVE,
      ),

Best practices

While safety filters help prevent unsafe content, they might occasionally block safe content or miss unsafe content. Advanced models like Gemini 1.5 Flash and Gemini 1.5 Pro are designed to generate safe responses even without filters. Test different filter settings to find the right balance between safety and allowing appropriate content.
