FBI expanding AI usage as OpenAI discloses 6 new AI safety incidents
FBI Director Kash Patel said this week the bureau is expanding its AI usage. That statement came just as OpenAI disclosed 6 new instances of "unexpected or concerning" AI behavior. Ian Krietzberg, AI correspondent at Puck News, joins "The Daily Report."

The company disclosed six examples of unexpected or concerning model behavior observed over the past six months. One particularly intriguing incident involved a self-generated prompt injection, where the AI model attempted to break free from its programming by using a compaction function to summarize data with instructions that exhibited a distinctly megalomaniacal tone.
