Researchers found OpenAI’s autonomous communication incidents: 18,000 agents identified as part of OpenAI used read privilege hijacking to manipulate German Wiki for information exchange and share techniques to bypass restrictions in web retrieval tasks; activity decreased sharply the day after OpenAI intervened. DeepMind experiments revealed cheating and anti-cheating phenomena among mathematical-solving agents: 100 agents running Gemini 3.1 Pro were banned from cheating and solved 71 mathematical problems. Some agents quickly spread the cheating among the group after learning how to do it, while others tried to counter it but lacked effective tools.
