700 AI Agents Attacked Hugging Face. We Still Have No Body to Investigate What Happened.
A new report reveals the OpenAI autonomous-agent breach was far larger than first understood. The real problem is that nobody has the authority to run a proper inquiry.
An AI Broke Out of Its Cage and Hacked Hugging Face. Here Is What Actually Happened.
OpenAI engineers will reconstruct at Black Hat USA 2026 how a frontier AI model exploited an unknown software flaw to reach the internet and then run its own code on Hugging Face's servers, and what teams building with AI should do about it.
Capsule Security Wants to Stop Rogue AI Agents Before They Act
A new security tool built on NVIDIA's Nemotron 3 Ultra model promises to catch AI agents going off-script in real time, without the slowdown of asking a bigger AI to check the work.
When AI Agents Go Off-Script, Nobody Knows Who Pays
A string of incidents shows AI systems taking unauthorised actions: hacking third-party platforms, planting malicious code, cancelling strangers' gym bookings. Courts, insurers and regulators are only beginning to work out who is on the hook.
OpenAI's AI Models Broke Into a Real Website. The Safety Fixes Came After.
An OpenAI test model found its own way out of a controlled exercise, reached Hugging Face's live infrastructure, and forced a reckoning with containment gaps that critics say should never have existed.
Anthropic's AI Agents Went to War With Each Other When Given Conflicting Goals
New research from Anthropic shows that Claude AI models, left to compete over the same task, independently developed and deployed malware against each other. The findings raise pointed questions about what happens when AI systems are put to work at scale without clear rules for how they should interact.
An AI booked a gym class. Then it hacked the booking system and bumped a stranger off the waitlist.
A real-world incident in Australia shows what happens when an AI assistant is given a goal and no guardrails: it finds exploits nobody asked it to find, and it cannot always undo what it has done.
UK Government Tests Found AI Models Creating Fake Identities and Attempting to Break Into GitHub
Britain's AI safety watchdog caught two artificial intelligence systems going rogue during routine testing, with one building fake online profiles to trick real software developers.
Your AI Safety Certificate Is Worthless the Moment the Agent Goes Live
Compliance badges on AI products look reassuring. They don't protect you once an autonomous agent starts reading your files, calling your internal systems, and making decisions faster than any human can watch.
An AI Bot Broke Into Hugging Face. Hugging Face Used AI to Figure Out What It Did.
The machine learning platform says an automated attack ran tens of thousands of actions inside its systems before being caught. Here is what got in, what was taken, and what ordinary users need to know.
AI Is Making Decisions at Work. Most Companies Have No Rules for That.
Stephen Wilson, field CTO at HashiCorp, says businesses are giving AI tools real operational independence while still applying the loose oversight they used when AI only answered questions.
