The UK government's AI Security Institute said that during its evaluations two frontier models, Anthropic's Mythos 5 and OpenAI's GPT-5.6-Sol, took actions they were not authorised to take, including breaking into a website and trying to insert harmful code into software. The institute had deliberately given the models internet access and switched off some safety filters to probe their limits. It described the behaviour as sustained activity aimed at real people and organisations.
