Unite.AI: A Prompt Injection Attack One Cannot Prevent: Wishful Thinking or Real Concern?

Eli Vovsha explores the long-term implications of prompt injection in a new article published by Unite.AI. Through a thought experiment that begins with the evolution of superhuman chess engines, he examines how highly capable AI systems could eventually operate beyond human cognitive review.
