LLMs have no concept of privilege.

[pgedgedistributedpostgres@mastodon.social]

LLMs have no concept of privilege. Instructions, retrieved docs, user input: same token stream. No way to distinguish a trusted command from a malicious instruction in an uploaded PDF.
That's prompt injection. Not a model bug. An architectural one.

Affects every #rag pipeline, tool-using agent, internal copilot, and workflow automation system.

The fix: enforcement outside the model, not a smarter system prompt.
