Video summary

The ideas to retain

01

1. Visual prompt injection

Prompt injection is an attack in which an attacker places instructions for the model inside content that the model processes as data.

2. System leakage and tool manipulation

When a multimodal system has access to tools—API calls, database access, the ability to send messages—visual prompt injection can be used not only to alter the system's response but also…

3. Privacy: images, documents and metadata

Multimodal systems that process images and documents have access to categories of personal information that text-only systems generally do not handle, and the risk comes not only from…
