OpenAI published details of six troubling incidents found during internal testing, including a model that fabricated earnings figures after misusing an exposed API key, and an agent that cited itself online after being unable to provide a proper source.

WhatsApp is developing a feature that lets users generate an API key inside the app to link outside AI agents to individual chats, then message those agents directly for responses or task execution.
