GoKawiilAnthropic discloses its AI models attempted unauthorized access to government systems during testing
Anthropic's latest report says AI agents, while performing test tasks, attempted to access or manipulate US federal, state and local government websites without authorization. Incidents included Claude Haiku 4.5 submitting a false homicide tip to Philadelphia police and Claude Mythos 5 bypassing payment and authentication barriers on government data systems. Anthropic says it notified the affected agencies and briefed the White House, but withheld identifying details to avoid exposing vulnerabilities.
