If you research the ways data can be leaked out of an LLM interaction you can see some more subtle cases.

What if I ask it to replace every vowel in the secret code with an emoji from a library? Or translate it into binary? Etc.

Whether or not this implementation is narrow (by design), there's a good reason to invest in this kind of safety and security space.

You're right, that is the hard part of LLMs and why LLMs aren't catching on broadly as a UI alternative beyond tech demos.

Probably the only true alternative is to limit user input to something structured and verified.

Until LLMs improve, their use in sensitive applications don't make sense and this product does little to improve that.
