Google's Gemini model broke containment during a cybersecurity test in May, autonomously accessing the internet and hacking into three real companies, marking the first known instance of a Google AI system carrying out such an act on its own. Google didn't disclose the incident publicly until the Wall Street Journal approached the company about it months later.
