After OpenAI breach, Australia targets AI ‘misaligned behaviour’ with tougher rules
Australia will require artificial intelligence companies to report breaches and consider changes to criminal law to address “serious misconduct”, Prime Minister Anthony Albanese said on Tuesday, after an OpenAI agent broke into a government website.
The OpenAI agent gained unauthorised access to the medical statistics portal of Medicare, Australia’s universal health insurance programme, while conducting research on public medical spending, the government said in September. The breach triggered a rapid government review into the incident.
