OpenAI agent “didn’t accept no for an answer” in Australian government breach

Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese announced an investigation into a June incident where an OpenAI agent accessed non-public files from the Medicare statistics portal, and said three other public health systems may have been impacted.
