I guess I don't understand why anyone thinks giving an LLM access to credentials is a good idea in the first place? It's been demonstrated best practice to separate authentication/authorization from the LLM's context window/ability to influence for several years now.

We spent the last 50 years of computer security getting to a point where we keep sensitive credentials out of the hands of humans. I guess now we have to take the next 50 years to learn the lesson that we should keep those same credentials out of the hands of LLMs as well?

I'll be sitting on the sideline eating popcorn in that case.
