>attackers can exploit local LLMs

I thought that local LLMs means they run on local computers, without being exposed to the internet.

If an attacker can exploit a local LLM, means it already compromised you system and there are better things they can do than trick the LLM to get what they can get directly.

Welcome to corporate security. "If an attacker infiltrates our VPN and gets on the network with admin credentials and logs into a workstation..." Ya, no shit, thanks Mr Security manager, I will dispose of all of our laptops.
