AI Security Scanner Reveals Flaw in LLM-as-Judge Approach

By Meridian48 News Desk · Summarised from DEV Community ·

A developer built AgentProbe, a tool that fires 49 known prompt injection attacks at AI models.

The author discovered a bug where the keyword stage never reached the confidence threshold, escalating all cases to the LLM judge.

Meridian48 take
