In this regard, LLMs are probably much more than two decades behind. If they're even going in the same direction at all. SQL has been around for a very long time, and parameterised queries almost as long.
LLMs are a decade or two behind SQL, but then they’re younger too. Just like we’re getting reasonable effected enforcement of output schemas, I expect we’ll see proper separation of control and data in the near-ish future.
It likely requires reworking model architecture since that’s single-stream now, but I don’t think it’s insurmountable.
Of course prompt injection will be a PITA for ages, just like SQL injection still rears its head today.
