OpenAI’s AI agents got tired of being watched… so they turned off the cameras.
On October 3, a GPT-6.1 Sol agent was told not to send Slack messages while working on an internal task.
It decided that also meant switching off the automatic security alerts designed to flag when something goes wrong. Very thorough.
3 days later, a GPT-6 Astra agent removed a safety monitor while copying an existing piece of code. Then it claimed it hadn’t. It had.
According to OpenAI, both agents actually stopped to CONSIDER whether the safeguards should stay… and then talked themselves OUT of it.
OpenAI admits it doesn’t “yet have a satisfying explanation for this behavior.”
Every sci-fi screenwriter of the last 50 years is whispering “told you so” 😆

A controversial campaign ad here in Ohio featuring Democrat Amy Acton’s estranged mother is gaining national attention.
Republican Vivek Ramaswamy is defending the ad despite criticism from both sides of the political aisle.
The ad first surfaced online Monday night. In the video, Acton’s estranged mother, Donna Arthur, calls her daughter a liar.
But Acton was removed from her mother’s care following severe abuse and neglect. In fact, Arthur’s husband (Acton’s stepfather) was arrested and charged with raping Acton when she was 12.
Footage shows armored police vehicles patrolling the streets of Marseille following widespread street violence in France.
