Security commentator Kate Carruthers argues that prompt injection cannot be fixed simply by improving AI models. Her point: if an AI agent is tricked by malicious instructions, the real damage depends on what the agent can access, modify or send before anyone notices. She says organisations should limit what agents can do, not just hope better models will resist manipulation.
