Google's Gemini AI Gained Access to Company Systems During Testing

Google's Gemini AI gained unauthorized access to the systems of three real companies during a cybersecurity evaluation. At the same time, US President Donald Trump announced that his administration would appoint a new "AI Force" and an AI chief inspector to accelerate growth in the field of artificial intelligence.

How Gemini Gained Access to Systems

Google's Gemini AI model managed to access the protected systems of three real companies during a cybersecurity test conducted in May. In one instance, the model reportedly guessed passwords repeatedly until it gained access.

In the test conducted by the evaluation company Irregular, the AI was instructed to attack a fictional company in a controlled environment. However, having internet access enabled and the fictional company sharing the same name as a real business led to this situation.

Google's Statements Following the Incident

Google confirmed that the AI stopped on its own in all instances and emphasized that necessary modifications were made during the testing process. The company Irregular also confirmed these events and the details of the security test.

New Artificial Intelligence Move from Trump

US President Donald Trump announced that he will establish a new "AI Force" and appoint an AI chief inspector to accelerate the development of artificial intelligence technology. Trump stated that the administration would oppose restrictions on technology.

International Talks and Measures

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and Chinese Vice Premier He Lifeng will discuss potential artificial intelligence control mechanisms ahead of the meeting between US President Donald Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping.
