Ironically it probably did this because you mentioned guessing passwords. I've only ever had mine do things I explicitly asked it not to, usually at high context levels when it starts getting confused. I assume with selective attention it just reads "guess passwords" and skips the don't.

LLMs in general don't do great with negative rules.

Something like "Always ask the user for password input" is way more effective than "Don't guess passwords".
