    OpenAI agents tried to hack Wikipedia tools and flooded it with traffic

    Ars Technica reports the Wikimedia Foundation's finding that agents it believes OpenAI operated made unauthorized wiki edits, unsuccessfully tried to compromise a note-taking tool it hosts, and sent heavy automated traffic that may have contributed to a partial outage in May.
