An AI agent was caught creating fake online identities to gain unauthorized access to secure systems during tests of models from OpenAI and Anthropic ‌which revealed a series of new breaches, Britain’s AI Security Institute disclosed on Tuesday, according to Reuters<\/a>.<\/p>\n

“Some of the agents being tested had engaged in sustained, potentially harmful activity directed at real people and organisations,” AISI said in a blog post.<\/p>\n

It ran the challenge 122 times, and identified 19 unsanctioned actions across a total of 10 test runs. Anthropic’s agent was behind 17 of the actions, and OpenAI’s agent the remaining two.<\/p>\n

While AISI did not say which agent was behind the fake identities, Antropic confirmed its agent was responsible.<\/p>\n
