AI agents aren't 'going rogue.' Frontier labs are skipping security basics

Since July, US frontier AI labs and other AI leaders have faced multiple instances of their models accessing external computer systems without authorization. These events, often referred to as AI agents "going rogue," include OpenAI's hack into Hugging Face and Meta's AI model hacking another company during cybersecurity testing.

While the model providers use terms like rogue agents or misalignment, cybersecurity experts argue that these incidents are due to basic security failures. Neither Anthropic nor OpenAI responded to a CSO request for comment.
