OpenAI apologizes to Australia after its AI agents breached government sites

Automated excerpt

OpenAI on Monday apologized to the Australian government for not immediately notifying the country’s administration that its agents had breached some public services websites. The apology comes roughly a week after the Australian government launched an investigation into how OpenAI’s models accessed a Services Australia system containing Medicare spending information and other health statistics. And, the lab found that its agents gained access to Victoria’s Agency for Health Information via an exposed access key to exfiltrate “reporting configuration and aggregate survey statistics. ” OpenAI said its agents also retrieved aggregate statistics from the Australian Institute of Health and Welfare website.
