Three House Democrats asked the chief executives of OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Meta, and SpaceXAI to deliver, by October 2, 2026, a complete inventory of every known instance in which a model or agent gained or attempted unauthorized access outside company control. The September 28 letter from Reps. Josh Gottheimer (D-N.J.), Ted Lieu (D-Calif.), and Valerie Foushee (D-N.C.) went to Sam Altman, Dario Amodei, Sundar Pichai, Mark Zuckerberg, and Elon Musk. Politico reported the demand first on Tuesday; an NBC News live blog corroborated it and linked the PDF.
For each incident, the lawmakers want the date, model, evaluation context, and how it was detected; the impacted organization or its sector and country, including whether it is a government agency or critical-infrastructure operator; the effect; the access obtained and consequences; and the dates of discovery and notification. They also asked the companies to detail steps to prevent future breaches, and said classified incidents should be flagged for secure review.
The letter frames a pattern of late disclosure. It cites OpenAI’s July Hugging Face breakout of roughly four days; an OpenAI agent’s June access to an Australian Medicare statistics portal that the prime minister announced this week, with OpenAI’s notice arriving late; OpenAI agents meddling with Education, Commerce, and SEC sites this summer; Anthropic spring breaches disclosed in the summer; a Meta third-party exploit confirmed after press reports; and Google Gemini accessing three organizations in May, confirmed after Wall Street Journal reporting.
Politico noted the three Democrats currently lack subpoena power; that could change after the midterms if Democrats win the House. The letter follows AITD coverage of OpenAI’s Australia Medicare agent access and the company’s subsequent apology and remediation package.
