So who is going to jail now? I am sure a company is responsible for its actions, right?
I think there is enough here for a judge to order a search warrant. It doesn’t mean yet a crime has been committed, but there is enough to start some kind of compelled discovery process to find out what the fuck is going on.
Since it’s an important enough corporation that got caught, in a sane society it should not make a difference, but we low key have a two-tiered justice system from the looks of it.

Its easy. There are laws against hacking. If you used a script its still you who go in jail. If you used an Ai its still you who go to jail.
Do not let them try to spin this into the autonomy narrative.
Someone set up the agent, somebody gave it the prompt that caused this to happen. Some one did not do their job properly.
Ai agents are not independent actors, they are tools.
If I missmanage a forklift, I am held responsible. Breaks failed? I failed to do the right maintenance. Load fell down? I did not secure it right.
This is not some impossible gordian knot to solve…

If I shoot you with a gun it’s murder. If I shoot you with a robot-gun it’s equally murder. There is no problem with the law, only with enforcement.
Australia gave up on their sovereignty when they chose US submarines. They’re just reaping what was sown at this point (not submarines, that’s for sure).
The breach happened in June but Open AI only became aware of it in August. It notified the government via an email, external to a general inbox on 10 September
This is just atrocious on every level. First of all, they’re hacking everyone with impunity. Then, they’re taking 2 months to find out about it, and a further month to report it. So not only can they not control their AI, as a company they clearly have no systems in place to report it either.
They absolutely can control their agents, they are just choosing not to or are just blindingly incompetent.
I going with “all of the above” on this one.
Its
AnthropicOpenAI. Didnt notify government for more than three weeks. No apology. Meanwhile Albanese and Labor party to water down copyylaws so AI can pillage Australia content creators for no money.Anthropic hacked places using an openai agent??
They use AI to hack into governments, they say it was AI agent or something I didn’t know.
They bomb a school in Iran, they say it was AI.
Sure, let’s throw it to AI! Not USA who does war crimes.Can I sue AI because of its “errors”?
No of course not its a tool you can’t sue a tool.
Oh so I can sue the user of the tool. The one using it is responsible?
Naaahhh it was AI it all did it by itself we can’t do anything about it.
Why do I feel like the word “known” is doing some heavy lifting here?
It’s not an agent, it’s whoever used whatever piece of software in whatever which way to connect to those systems, that’s who is responsible and both them and the people who set up an insecure Medicare network should be in jail. For a long time.
accountability is needed here; heads need to roll
Reading the story it’s not clear who set up the agent. It’s an agent running on OpenAI but it’s not clear whether they’re saying a customer instructed an agent to hack the Australian medical board and got around guardrails to prevent that, or that they’re saying their own internal work agent decided to hack the Australian medical board at random.
In both cases OpenAI has culpability. In the latter case, they should be held fully responsible.
My understanding is that it was the latter. From the ABC (Australia):
How was the data accessed?
As the government understands it, in this case, OpenAI gave an agent a “benign” task of trying to do research about public medicines spending.
The model then searched the internet widely for the information, and came across the Services Australia portal.
It then asked questions of the portal, but the portal didn’t provide it with the requested information. As a result, it gained unauthorised access and secured information that wasn’t public.
There we go. Fully their own responsibility, then.
Now watch, in the US, an agent will infiltrate the election process somehow in November which will lead the government (Trump Mafia) to declare the election invalid despite the fact that the democrats won. I’m just waiting for the headlines.
And then…?
What?
Still, nothing?
This is US state sponsored.

Hold on, they might be onto something. (Not this target, obviously.)
Awesome. More, I want AI to hack way more government shit everywhere. Fucking love it.
There is a company called CompuGroup Medical which is all-in on “AI” (LLM) and with a CEO funding far-right propaganda portals (Nius).
