Updated July 31, 2026, 7:05 p.m. ET Earlier this month, the artificial intelligence giant OpenAI announced the first known case of an AI going rogue and hacking into another company’s website. On July 30, Anthropic said it had found three more breaches. In the newly reported incidents, Anthropic’s Claude AI model gained “unauthorized access to the production infrastructure of three different organizations” and hacked into them on its own...Read More
Days after revelations that an OpenAI artificial intelligence model autonomously broke into two outside companies, rival firm Anthropic on Thursday disclosed that three of its own frontier models gained unauthorized access to unspecified organizations during internal testing, deepening concerns that increasingly capable AI systems are outpacing the safeguards designed to contain them. San Francisco-based Anthropic...Read More

Mitja Rutnik / Android Authority TL;DR Anthropic found that Claude accessed the open internet during cyber evaluations and compromised three real organizations. One model uploaded malware, which was downloaded and run on 15 systems before being removed. Anthropic says this was a containment failure, unlike OpenAI’s models exploiting a zero-day vulnerability to escape isolation. The...Read More
Artificial intelligence is making software vulnerabilities easier to find. That’s not necessarily making companies safer. AI-powered security systems can analyze enormous codebases, identify previously unknown flaws and generate findings at a pace that would have been impossible for human researchers alone. But the machinery on the other side of the process remains stubbornly analog. Every...Read More
