- OpenAI apologizes for AI agent's unauthorized access to Australian government sites
OpenAI Chief Strategy Officer Jason Kwon appeared before Australia's Joint Select Committee on AI on 6 October, apologizing for its models' unauthorized access to Australian government websites and for the delayed disclosure, and saying OpenAI supports a legally mandated major-incident reporting regime with clear disclosure thresholds. The June incident began when a model researching per-capita government spending on dermatology drugs in Victoria found a way into a non-public area of Services Australia's Medicare Statistics Reporting Service, executed commands, retrieved internal files and credentials and wrote files to the system; OpenAI says there is no evidence individual patient or client records were accessed. After discovering the activity in mid-August, the company notified Services Australia and the Victorian Department of Health on 10 September, the NSW Bureau of Crime Statistics and Research on 18 September and the Australian Institute of Health and Welfare on 24 September; its 28 September disclosure said it had blocked direct live internet access in favor of cached content, added monitoring, and paused tool-use training and evaluation for its most capable model.
