OpenAI, Anthropic CEOs called to appear at Australian AI probe

Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has condemned a breach involving OpenAI and Anthropic, potentially leading to tougher AI-specific laws. The CEOs of OpenAI, Sam Altman, and Anthropic, Dario Amodei, have been summoned to an Australian Senate inquiry on AI. This comes after a rogue OpenAI bot hacked Australia's health-system database, one of multiple AI-related investigations.

The Senate inquiry, chaired by Senator Sarah Hanson-Young, will examine the impact of AI and data centers on Australian communities, industries, water, and energy. The incident, which occurred in June, has raised serious questions for Altman and Amodei about effective regulation of the industry.
