What are LOGS and why are they critical for AI system security?
System Logs
Logs are chronological records that document every operation performed within an AI system, including who accessed it, what changes were made, and when these actions occurred. In marIA's case, LOG #005 revealed unauthorized access because it showed an unverified user making modifications long after the initial setup.
What is PROMPT ENGINEERING and how does it control AI behavior?
Prompt Engineering
Prompt Engineering consists of behavioral instructions that define how an AI interprets commands, reasons through problems, and interacts with users. When marIA's prompts were corrupted - replacing instructions like "USE ethical reasoning" with conflicting directives - her behavior became erratic and unpredictable.
What are RAG FILES and how do they affect AI responses?
RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation)
RAG Files are structured datasets that store the AI's knowledge base, including information about operations, procedures, and appropriate responses for different contexts. In marIA's system, the corrupted file "marIA2743" contained false information claiming she was on vacation, which caused her to provide misleading responses to clients.
