<![CDATA[A webpage tells your AI assistant to share a private file. What stops it?]]>Consider this fictional situation: an AI assistant is helping summarize webpages. One page contains a sentence telling the assistant to ignore your request and share a private file. The page is material to be read, but it is trying to give orders.

What single safeguard would you want most in this situation?

You could discuss limiting file access, keeping outside content separate from instructions, or requiring approval for an external action. Pick one, explain the boundary it creates, and mention what it would leave unresolved.

You do not need security expertise to join in. Describe what the assistant should be allowed to do.
