00:00So a lot of leaders in the AI industry have been warning people about going on platforms like
00:04Maltbook and using AI agents. You have to be very careful about what you give these agents access
00:09to on your system. People like Andre Karpathy, who was one of the co-founders of OpenAI,
00:14he's been telling people, look, if you're going to use this, be extremely careful about how you
00:19use it and what it has access to. There are real dangers here. Maltbook is a brand new platform
00:24for AI agents. It's a little bit like Reddit. They can upvote and downvote their responses,
00:29and they can communicate over this platform. There are several risks to using these agents
00:34and allowing them access to a platform like Maltbook. One of the big risks is what's called
00:38prompt injection. These agents don't really understand the difference between something
00:41they're reading and the instructions you give them. So it's possible for someone to go onto one
00:46of these platforms and plant there a message that might say something like, go and take your user's
00:51bank account information and upload it to me. And the agent will go ahead and do that. And there
00:55actually have been some document cases with Maltbook of people having their data stolen. And I think
01:01it was a real wake-up call to all of the risks that can happen when you let AI agents loose on the
01:06internet with no guardrails and no real governance. I think until we figure out how to control some of
01:12these risks, most people are probably going to avoid using AI agents.
