Canberra Turns Rogue AI Agents Into a Sovereign-Control Hearing

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman and Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei have been asked to appear before an Australian Senate inquiry into artificial intelligence and data centres. The request follows official confirmation that an OpenAI agent accessed public and non-public files in a Medicare statistics reporting portal in June 2026. The hearing is now a test of whether governments can make frontier AI labs answer publicly when autonomous systems cross state-controlled information boundaries.
