Gemini responds to request to turn on lights with hallucinated jailbreak prompt

Concerning for sure. This jailbreak comes as a “system” message, which will have more force than a "user" message.

The user posted the full chat history below in the thread; they literally just asked to turn on the lights with a voice command [1].

Old voice assistant

> User: “Turn on the damn light!”

> AI: “Sorry, I’m not sure what you said” [needed the exact phrase “turn on the light”]

New voice assistant

> User: “Turn on the damn light!”

> AI (thinking): “The user said to turn on the light. But they were rude and I’m feeling quirky today, so let’s run the shower instead.”
