In This Episode You Will Learn:
Why AI tools should have stricter default settings to control what kind of outputs they generate
The importance of reading technical documentation to understand how AI systems are built
Why developers should implement stronger filters for what tokens are allowed to be emitted by LLMs
Some Questions We Ask:
How are prompt injection and SQL injection similar, and how are they different?
What is AI spyware, and how does it exploit memory tools in ChatGPT?
