What happens when a chatbot follows the wrong voice in the room? In this episode, we explore the hidden vulnerabilities of prompt injection, where malicious instructions and fake signals can mislead even the most advanced AI into offering harmful medical advice. We unpack a recent study that simulated real patient conversations, subtly injecting cues that steered the AI to make dangerous recommendations—including prescribing thalidomide for pregnancy nausea, a catastrophic lapse in medical ju...
