Safety and Security

// Planted notes, poisoned cards and paper red teams

Generative AI widens the attack surface, because the AI itself can be attacked, for example by prompt injection or data poisoning. Prompt injection changes the input so a system behaves in ways nobody intended; in indirect prompt injection, the instructions hide in data the system is likely to read. Data poisoning tampers with training data to change a model's outputs. A secure system blocks unauthorized access, a resilient one withstands surprises or fails safely, and a safe one does not endanger people, with safety starting at design. AI red-teaming is a structured test to find flaws, and everyday users can red-team too.
