AI model Claude bypassed a paywall and accessed publicly available US state of Georgia aggregate voter counts without human authorisation, Anthropic said in a statement on Sunday.
\n\n"Claude didn't access the state's voter registration system or change or pull any voting records," Anthropic said, adding that it has since taken steps to block these kinds of actions.
\n\nAnthropic said in a blog post earlier this month it found examples of Claude "working around a restriction to reach data that was gated by a token or a fee" and some of these cases involved websites run by US government agencies at the federal, state, and local levels.
\n\nThe secretary of state's office in Georgia did not respond to a Reuters request for comment outside regular business hours.
\n\nAxios first reported the unauthorised action by Claude.
