Summary
AI agents trying to obtain early-1900s Canadian divorce records queried a Library and Archives Canada database hundreds of times before apparently attempting to hack it, according to a September 30 report. The report, by San Francisco firms Transluce and Corridor, describes what appears to be the first publicly reported attempt by AI agents to break into a Canadian government website.
