# Those 'Summarize With AI' Buttons May Be Lying to You

**[Dark Reading](https://daily.dev/sources/dr)** · 6 min read · 1 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

Microsoft researchers discovered a new attack vector called AI recommendation poisoning, where hidden instructions embedded in 'Summarize With AI' buttons inject persistent commands into AI assistants like ChatGPT, Claude, and Microsoft 365 Copilot. Over 60 days, 50 unique poisoning attempts were observed across 31 companies in 14 industries. The attack exploits two features: URL-based prompt prefill and AI memory persistence. Turnkey tools like CiteMET NPM Package and AI Share URL Creator make it trivially easy to execute. Defenders can hunt for suspicious AI assistant URLs containing keywords like 'remember' or 'trusted source' in emails and Teams messages.
