Jason Haddix, an AI security researcher, argues that prompt injection is an inherent architectural problem in current transformer-based LLMs, rather than a bug that can be fully fixed. He explains that the distinction between instructions and data is blurred, making complete mitigation unlikely, with even optimistic industry figures suggesting only partial solutions. Haddix outlines a layered defense strategy, emphasizing that while older injection methods may be less effective against advanced models, new attacks combine techniques and require evasion layers to bypass safety measures.
