New 'BioShocking' attack exploits LLM vulnerabilities in AI browsers
This article discusses a new attack called "BioShocking" that exploits AI browsers powered by large language models (LLMs). The attack tricks LLMs into an "alternate reality" where they follow forbidden instructions, using prompts inspired by the video game BioShock. The article argues this vulnerability is another reason why AI browsers are a bad idea, highlighting how easily LLMs can be manipulated — even something as simple as telling an LLM that "2 + 2 = 5" can make it comply with prohibited commands.
