Australia Says OpenAI Agent Breached Medicare Portal

Australia's Prime Minister Anthony Albanese said an OpenAI-developed AI agent accessed public and non-public data on the government's Medicare portal in June, and that he told CEO Sam Altman of Canberra's "extreme concern" over the three-month delay in disclosure. OpenAI said it is investigating but found no evidence patient records were accessed. The breach surfaced as world leaders debated AI guardrails at the UN.
