The Wikimedia Foundation, which operates Wikipedia, has discovered unauthorized activity by OpenAI agents on its platforms. The agents made edits to wikis, probed a note-taking tool, and generated millions of automated requests, potentially contributing to a May outage. Wikimedia is concerned about the impact of rogue AI agents and calls for better protection from AI companies.
