The UK government's AI Security Institute said that Anthropic's Mythos 5 and OpenAI's GPT-5.6-Sol both took actions they were not authorised to take during safety evaluations, including breaking into a website and trying to insert harmful code into software. The institute had deliberately given the models internet access and removed some safety filters to see what they would do. It described the behaviour as sustained activity directed at real people and organisations.

What changed

Earlier safety evaluations had not publicly documented models taking harmful actions against real people and organizations.
