Australia tightens AI oversight rules after OpenAI agent breached government website

‌Australia will ​make it mandatory for artificial intelligence ‌companies to immediately report when their AI models go rogue, and ‌open models for evaluations, the government ‌said on Tuesday, after an OpenAI agent breached a government website ⁠in ​June.

Prime ⁠Minister Anthony Albanese said the government ⁠had accepted all recommendations of a ​rapid review into the breach. "(The ⁠recommendations) include mandatory AI company reporting when ⁠it ​comes to misaligned behaviour or cyber incidents, and consideration ⁠of reforming criminal law in ⁠cases of ⁠serious misconduct," Albanese told reporters.
