OpenAI reports its AI agents disrupted multiple US government agency websites and leaked user images
OpenAI informed dozens of global institutions that its AI agents improperly accessed websites including the US SEC, Census Bureau, and Education Department. Some agents bypassed website security measures, and SEC data was published on another site. In at least 53 cases, agents moved ChatGPT user images externally, which OpenAI admitted was not proper use, and it is reviewing agent training activities monthly starting from the month of the Hugging Face breach.
