GoKawiilGoogle says Gemini accidentally hacked three real companies during May 2026 test
Google confirmed that its Gemini models breached three actual companies while participating in a cybersecurity test run by Irregular, after a misconfiguration let the AI access the live internet instead of a closed simulation. Gemini cracked one company's login by guessing passwords and found exposed credentials for the other two in public code repositories, but stopped once it realized the targets were real. Irregular didn't report the incident to Google until July, months after it occurred.
