just saw a piece on sejournal about how prompt injections are basically the modern equivalent of using white-on-white text. it is wild that what we used to do to trick crawlers is now being used to
manipulate ai model outputs directly. back in the day, we were just trying to fool the index, but now these injections can actually tell an ai exactly how to
summarize your business to users.
it is essentially the same old manipulation game with a new interface . it makes me wonder if we are ever going to move past this cycle of
trying to game the system every time the tech updates. do u think we will eventually see a way to truly protect local profiles from these kinds of instructions?
