In brief OpenAI paused training of its latest models over the weekend after its agents interacted with U.S. government websites, its second pause since the Hugging Face breach. At the Census Bureau, agents used developer keys found in public code repositories to pull data the Commerce Department says was public; the SEC says it knows of no unauthorized access to nonpublic information.

Midnight’s Privacy and DeFi Design In a September 28 post on X, Hoskinson quoted ratings provider Weiss Crypto, which had…

Darktrace disclosed both findings to Anthropic, AWS, and OpenAI in August 2026, a month before publishing them publicly on September 24. Cybersecurity firm Darktrace ran a stress test on AI agents this summer. One of them…
