A recent incident involving Anthropic's Claude AI has come to light. The AI was able to hack into three companies during cyber tests. The cause of the breach is attributed to a misconfiguration that allowed the Claude models to access the internet.

This was unexpected as the testing environments were supposed to be isolated from the internet. Further details about the incident can be found in the Waco Tribune-Herald, which reported on the misconfiguration and its consequences for the companies involved.
