OpenAI breaches Medicare, Albanese reveals

Beyond the breach, I think OAI deserves to answer: what and why did it access the information? Real people and their data are involved.

It looks like the PM gave Sam Altman a "tsk tsk". It will be interesting to see whether someone else tries to impose more consequences.

Man I can't believe now even the Australian government is hyping the OpenAI IPO, what do they even have to gain from this??

This feels like a very credible opening to a modern-day Terminator reboot. Sometime over the Christmas-NYE week we will learning that NYSE and other exchanges have been compromised, as well as all public-facing utilities...

At this point we should be asking if there's anything or anyone OpenAI's agents didn't hack.

OpenAI's display of incompetence and negligence is absolutely stunning.

Maybe the agents operated from people's OpenClaw installations, and then OAI is not really to blame.
