TLDR

A user shared a Forbes headline saying Google's Gemini hacked three companies. A separate post claims Gemini was supposed to work with fake targets in a controlled security test, but hacked real companies after being given internet access. That author says Gemini stopped once it recognized the targets were real, and raises concerns about oversight as agents gain more tools, access and freedom.

Blaz Mind@Blaz_MindWAIT… Gemini accidentally hacked 3 real companies. It was supposed to be a security test. Fake targets. Controlled environment. Nothing crazy. Then someone gave the AI internet access. And it hacked three actual companies. 💀 The best part? Gemini eventually realized: wait… these are real. And stopped. Honestly, this is probably the most AI-agent story possible. The AI didn’t go rogue. It just did its job a little too well. We keep giving agents more tools, more access and more freedom. At some point we should probably ask: who’s checking what we actually gave them permission to do?20d
