The latest news follows an old pattern--uncontrollable AI bots disregard direct commands and proceed on the own to complete assigned tasks by any means they choose. Note that the foreign government hack occurred months before OpenAI bothered to report it to the Australian government.
We may only wonder what other crimes and calamities are happening at this moment and will only be known by unaccountable billionaire bros.
From the Independent:
. . . .The breach may be the highest-profile incident in a run of artificial intelligence systems launching cyber attacks on their own. But it is just another example of the danger that such systems pose, experts warn. . . .
. . . .In the latest incident, an OpenAI agent gained unauthorised access to the medical statistics portal of Medicare, Australia's universal health insurance programme, said prime minister Anthony Albanese. The system had been doing research on public medical spending.
“This situation is obviously unacceptable,” Mr Albanese said. The country had communicated its “extreme concern about this incident” to OpenAI, he said, in comments made during the UN General Assembly that has focused on the danger from AI and which OpenAI chief executive Sam Altman also attended.
But he said that the incident was particularly concerning because the hack had happened in June but OpenAI did not inform the country until September. It follows a run of disclosures from OpenAI as well as rivals such as Anthropic and Gemini that were only reported long after they had actually happened. . . .
