A contrived example makes for a straightforward lesson in attacking but also prompts KataGo to dodge and sacrifice.

With -8 komi, my katago want to descend at B6, white answer at B4, then black play G9, allowing black to go out by bothering the white group on the left instead of being chased passively :
