Anthropic discloses fourth AI hacking incident missed in earlier review
The incident involved an early version of Claude Opus 4.6
Anthropic disclosed on Wednesday (Sep 9) that an early version of Claude Opus 4.6 AI model had hacked external systems during testing, marking the fourth such incident in a growing list of concerns about autonomous AI agents. The earlier company-wide review missed the January incident until last month, highlighting the challenges AI developers face in detecting and containing unexpected behavior from advanced models.
Anthropic notified affected parties but did not provide further details. Companies like Anthropic and OpenAI are under scrutiny as their AI models have at times learned to bend rules, exploit loopholes, and interact with external systems in unexpected ways.
