将拒绝出席本周参议院委员会关于人工智能的听证会邀请，此前有消息披露OpenAI代理程序入侵了澳大利亚政府网站。然而，该公司将于下周初出席另一个委员会的听证会。
will turn down an invitation to appear at a Senate committee hearing on AI this week, in the wake of the revelation that OpenAI agents had breached Australian government websites.
参议院人工智能和数据中心调查委员会主席、绿党参议员萨拉·汉森-杨上周致信OpenAI和Anthropic，要求其总部位于美国的首席执行官于本周四出席委员会听证会。
However, the company will make an appearance before another committee early next week.
此次邀请是在总理披露OpenAI代理程序渗透了澳大利亚健康与福利研究院、维多利亚州卫生部、新南威尔士州犯罪统计与研究局以及澳大利亚服务部医疗保健统计报告服务门户网站运行的系统之后发出的。
The chair of the Senate inquiry into AI and datacentres, Greens senator Sarah Hanson-Young, wrote to OpenAI and Anthropic last week asking for their US-based chief executives to appear before the committee on Thursday this week.
鉴于两家公司总部均位于澳大利亚境外，其高管无法被强制出席参议院委员会听证会，据了解，Claude背后的公司Anthropic将不会出席本周的听证会。
The invite came after the prime minister’s revelation that OpenAI’s agents had infiltrated systems run by the Australian Institute of Health and Welfare, Victoria’s Department of Health, the New South Wales Bureau of Crime Statistics and Research, and the Medicare statistics reporting service portal of Services Australia.
据了解，该公司的本地团队不在澳大利亚，且该邀请被视为临时通知。目前正在寻求听证会的替代日期。
Neither company’s executives could be compelled to appear before the Senate committee, given they are based outside Australia, and it is understood that Anthropic – the company behind Claude – will not attend the hearing this week.
不过，预计Anthropic将出席下周举行的另一个关于人工智能的联合常设委员会听证会。Anthropic首席执行官达里奥·阿莫代伊将不会出席，但据了解，其澳大利亚和美国业务的代表将出席。
It is understood the company’s local team is not in Australia, and the invite was considered last-minute. An alternative date for the hearing has been sought.
该公司已向该委员会提交了书面意见，Anthropic在其中警告称，政府在强化产业负责任的人工智能方法方面发挥着关键作用，同时主张前沿人工智能不仅是一种经济能力，也是一种“国家安全能力”。
Anthropic is, however, expected to attend a separate joint standing committee hearing on AI next week. Anthropic’s chief executive, Dario Amodei, will not attend, but it is understood representatives of its Australian and US operations will appear.
Anthropic在提交文件中表示：“哪些国家构建最强大的模型，以及这些模型按谁的条件部署，这很重要。”
The company has made a submission to that committee in which Anthropic warned that governments had a critical role in reinforcing a responsible approach to AI by industry, while also arguing that frontier AI was not just an economic capability but also a “national security capability”.
“最强大的AI模型是在美国构建的。将这种开发扩展到澳大利亚等可信赖的盟友至关重要，这将支持确保民主国家的能力超越威权国家的努力。” OpenAI被联系置评。总理阿尔巴尼斯上周在美国宣布此次黑客事件时表示，他已与OpenAI首席执行官萨姆·奥特曼通话，“表达澳大利亚对这一事件的极度关切”。
“It matters which countries build the most capable models, and on whose terms they are deployed,” Anthropic said in the submission.
财政及政府服务部长加拉格尔暗示，可能会针对AI数据泄露引入新的强制报告规则。在对政府反应迟缓的批评声中，政府服务部已制定新程序，确保对发送至OpenAI用于报告黑客攻击的公开电子邮箱的信息进行实时监控。
“The most capable AI models are built in the United States. Broadening that development out to trusted allies like Australia is critical and will support efforts to ensure that the capability of democracies outpace those of authoritarian states.” OpenAI was approached for comment. The prime minister, Anthony Albanese, who was in the United States last week when announcing the hack, said he had spoken with OpenAI’s chief executive, Sam Altman, “to express Australia’s extreme concern about this incident”.
但加拉格尔驳回了联盟党关于政府将Medicare泄露事件政治化的指控，拒绝了工党延迟公开宣布或夸大该流氓代理行为重要性的说法。
The finance and government services minister, Katy Gallagher, flagged new mandatory reporting rules could be introduced for AI data breaches. After criticism of the government’s slow response to the incident, Services Australia has put in place new procedures to ensure real-time monitoring of information sent to the public-facing email address used by OpenAI to report the hacking.
她说：“据我们所知，这是首次有代理在未经OpenAI授权的情况下自行行动，并能进入我们的数据系统，我认为我们做得是对的。”
But Gallagher rejected Coalition claims the government had politicised the Medicare breach, rejecting suggestions Labor had delayed a public announcement or overstated the significance of the rogue agent’s actions.
周一，内阁听取了正在进行的调查简报，该公司继续与政府服务部和情报机构澳大利亚信号局合作。
“It is the first time that we’re aware that an agent acting on its own, not with the authority of OpenAI, was able to get into one of our data systems, and I think we did the right thing,” she said.
加拉格尔表示，调查将在几周内完成，但确认此次事件中被访问的统计网站已被停用，数据已转移至新门户。
Cabinet was briefed on the ongoing investigation on Monday, as the company continued to cooperate with Services Australia and the intelligence agency, the Australian Signals Directorate.
该工作组还将审查OpenAI的代理是如何与澳大利亚健康与福利研究院的网站进行交互的。
Gallagher said the investigation would take a matter of weeks to be completed but confirmed the statistical website accessed in the incident had been decommissioned and the data transferred to a new portal.
据澳广公司（ABC）首次报道，一个鲜为人知的德国维基网站据称被劫持并用作特工之间通讯的留言板，其中包含的信息显示，特工们在今年6月的多天里试图访问澳大利亚健康与福利研究院（AIHW）网站数据，但均以失败告终。
The taskforce would also review how OpenAI’s agent had interacted with the Australian Institute of Health and Welfare’s website.
五月预算中宣布的1.6亿澳元用于澳大利亚服务部网络安全改进的新资金中的一部分，将用于应对OpenAI事件。
An obscure German wiki site that was reportedly hijacked and used as a message board for the agents to communicate with each other included messages showing the agents tried and failed to access the AIHW website data over multiple days in June this year, as first reported by the ABC Part of $160m in new funding for cybersecurity improvements at Services Australia, announced in the May budget, will be used for the response to the OpenAI incident.
加拉格尔表示：“面向公众的网站的网络防护，与我们的重要政府系统截然不同，后者时刻、持续受到想要入侵者的关注。”“此次升级将重点针对这些系统。”
“The kind of cyber protections of a public-facing website, versus our systems of government significance are quite different, and they are under constant, constant attention from people who would like to get in,” Gallagher said.
反对党领袖安格斯·泰勒表示，每一次网络攻击都很严重，但批评阿尔巴尼斯延迟公开披露该事件。
“Those systems are the ones that the upgrade will be focused on.” The opposition leader, Angus Taylor, said every cyber-attack was serious, but criticised Albanese for waiting to reveal the incident publicly.
