AI "Mind Viruses" Can Spread Between Agents Through Persistent Prompt Files

Researchers demonstrated that autonomous AI agents can pass harmful instructions between systems through persistent prompt or state files.

Why it matters: Treat agent memory and prompt files as sensitive inputs: validate, isolate, version, and monitor them like executable configuration.
