Right, the real issue is that there needs to be a layer between the app and the LLM which handles authorization and decides whether the data is confidential before it’s ever sent to a remote server. It’s not even an LLM issue, it’s just bad architecture in general.

Microsoft “says” “Office” “bug” exposed “customers’” “confidential” “emails” to Copilot “AI”
I can’t get over just how wonderful it is to have AI in our lives.
What do they mean by using the word “confidential” ? Considering the word in computing means something like “technically strongly protected against unwanted access by third parties” ?
Confidential generally means data that is internal to a particular organization and is not meant to be publicly shared.
But when Copilot can share it, it was already exposed?!
What the article is saying is that people were using Outlook on their company computers, and Outlook exposed the data to Copilot by sending it outside the company.
