## retained text



```
Researchers used Anthropic’s Claude technology to break into OpenAI’s ChatGPT systems, underlining the immediate dangers of AI even as regulators fret over its long-term risks. The effort, part of a bug-hunting program, was the latest in a series of cybersecurity breaches aided in large part by fast-developing AI technology, The Wall Street Journal noted.
Axios cited business executives and ex-government officials voicing worry over AI-powered cyberattacks threatening critical infrastructure, while The Washington Post noted the Pentagon’s “antiquated computer networks” had resulted in an explosion of cybersecurity risks. As a new research paper put it, recent breaches have been the result not of a developing superintelligence as some top AI leaders warn, but of insufficient technical guardrails leaving networks vulnerable.
