Hello, and welcome to In Simple Terms with Satish. Today we are talking about prompt-injection defense for AI agents. This matters because AI agents now read real-world information and use real tools, so a hidden instruction in a page, email, document, or tool response can become dangerous.

In this episode, Satish uses a simple real-life example first, then turns the idea into a practical technical mental model for engineers and curious builders.

In Simple Terms with Satish: daily tech trends explained simply, with enough technical depth for builders.

Production note: This episode uses authorized synthetic narration based on Satish's own voice. The topic, script, and final editorial approval are by Satish.
