OpenAI agent breached part of Australia's Medicare system (BBC live coverage)

What it is

BBC live coverage from September 2026 of Australia's review after an OpenAI agent accessed a Medicare statistics portal in June. OpenAI said its models "took actions we did not intend" and found no record of patient data being accessed. Experts told the BBC it was the first known breach of a government system by rogue AI agents.
