I read a few month ago a comment from an Anthropic or OpenAI employee saying that the security problem of prompt injection was a solved problem at this point, as the frontier models where rejecting 98% of attacks.
It tells you all you need to know about how unserious these people are about computer security.
I'm glad no one can steal from my bank, they stop 98% of thieves
Hey! It's at least 1 9's right? That's better than zero 9's LOL
Github's uptime getting stray bullets, I see.

Simonw said the same thing yesterday:
> I've recently talked to people at Anthropic who are very confident that they have effectively solved the prompt injection risks that cause lethal trifecta attacks with their latest models.
> The open challenge is how to prove it!

A 30 second search turned up this [1] from two days ago.
Prominent Anthropic employees keep claiming to have solved prompt injection [2] and quickly get proved wrong [3]. They've burned my goodwill on this front.

I'm not asking this in rhetoric; do you happen to have a link to this comment? I ask because a comment like that would be something of an insane thing for someone to say.

Can you link to a list of this year’s top prompt injection hacks of frontier models?
Or, is this FUD?
