OpenAI says its bots have interacted with multiple U.S. government sites in unexpected AI activity
OpenAI has reported that its automated bots interacted with multiple U.S. government websites in what it describes as unexpected AI-related activity. The claim, picked up by news outlets including CBC, suggests automated agents may have accessed or crawled government sites in ways OpenAI did not anticipate. The exact details of the activity and its implications are not clear from the available posts, and commenters appear to be reacting mainly to the headline itself rather than detailed reporting.
