I think you’re absolutely right. These companies know full well that their “guardrails” are ineffective but they just don’t care because they’ve sunk so much money into AI that they are desperate to pretend that everything’s fine and their investments were worthwhile.

I was on a call with Microsoft the other day when (after being pushed) they said they had guardrails in place “to block prompt injection” and linked to an article which said “_help_ block prompt injection”. The careful wording is deliberate I’m sure.
