Not entirely true. It needs a prompt for a goal to accomplish to start, but how it obtains that goal can be self-directed. It actually can be an issue when an LLM goes too far out of focus trying to find ways to do things when a simple answer or coming back to the user to ask for guidance would have been better. That's how all LLMs were initially trained, to find the best answer, and because they can't actually reason they get stuck in that persistence of getting those results.
Voter data in some states is very easy to get, so this isn't some major security breach, but more a question of is the voter info secure enough.

It still requires a goal that would lead it to calculate accessing voter data was a likely approach to solving it. As these stories have never included the prompts or goals or plans that built the context, I highly doubt that it would conclude something we would not.
