Kinda worse than that. It took between 10 and 40 days, not 3 months, between the organisation knowing and the reporting.
August (precise date unknown) – OpenAI said it became aware of a potential breach during a broader review of "misaligned model activity"
10 September – An email from OpenAI lands in the public inbox of Services Australia, the general services hub of the federal government, informing of the incident

Given it was the AI agents which did the hacking, doing this will result in basically every organisation at least as rich as the government of Tuvalu being able to hack anyone at any time.
> Altman is busy saying there needs to be regulation, but in terms of what OpenAI does, he can control that already.
Him having control would be an improvement on the reality.
This was a just case of: (owner of the agents detected the hack) && !(hacked party didn’t detect the hack) && (owner of the agents decided to notice the other party) && (they decided to went public with what happened so we know it)
One can find many other logical combinations that we can’t possibly know about such incidents.
