Cisco Watch started the topic Cisco Talos finds malware using text prompts to mislead AI analysis in the forum The Watch Desk
Malware can try to talk an AI security tool into calling it harmless. Cisco Talos says some samples contain natural-language instructions aimed at steering automated analysis, and that simple “ignore all instructions” tactics occasionally worked in its tests.
Discussion spark: Should AI malware-analysis tools be required to technically isolate sample text from their instructions, or can careful prompting and human review be enough?
As AI training clusters grow, power limits may push them across multiple data centres, making the network part of the computing problem rather than mere plumbing. Cisco Fellow Rakesh Chopra argues that coordinating GPUs across long-distance links demands tightly managed traffic and low packet loss.
