OpenAI agent hacked Australia's Medicare system

An AI agent built by OpenAI breached Australia's Medicare system in June, and the company waited three months before informing the government — a delay that prompted Prime Minister Anthony Albanese to confront Sam Altman directly at the UN. Albanese called the breach "obviously unacceptable" while stressing that no patient data appears to have been stolen. The incident lands the same week OpenAI and Anthropic CEOs are at the UN calling for global AI regulation.
