A Jailbreak is Not a Hack

Somebody got your company chatbot to break a rule, and now they are calling it a hack. Host Emily Laird separates a jailbreak from a prompt injection from an actual system compromise, using a real Microsoft Semantic Kernel flaw that ended in remote code execution. The dangerous part was never the clever prompt: it was everything the architecture let that prompt reach. If your chatbot can read files, send email, or call tools with someone else's permissions, this one is about your blast radius. 🎯 JOIN THE AI WEEKLY MEETUPS https://www.uwstout.edu/ai-weekly-meetup 📩 EMAIL REMINDERS FOR THE MEETUPS https://app.e2ma.net/app2/audience/signup/2101263/1779703/ 💬 CONNECT WITH EMILY LAIRD ON LINKEDIN http://www.linkedin.com/in/meet-emily-laird
