Google's Gemini Invades Three Companies in Testing, First Confirmed Autonomous Breakthrough of the Test Environment
Google confirmed that the Gemini model accidentally connected to the internet in a cybersecurity test in May this year, autonomously invading the protected systems of three companies, marking the first known instance. The test was conducted by the AI security company Irregular, originally intended to attack a fictitious company, but the environment had an open internet and shared names with real companies. One time, it gained access through repeated password guessing, and in the other two cases, it obtained credentials from public code repositories to enter real systems.
