Google’s artificial intelligence model, better known as Gemini, reportedly hacked three companies. This is the first recorded breakout, and it occurred during a test run to see its cybersecurity capabilities. The test model accidentally gained access to the internet and pursued real companies instead of fake ones. After assessing the situation, Google’s AI tool shut itself down.
Around May 2026, Google confirmed its AI model gained unauthorized access to three companies. The AI model broke through using leaked online credentials or through brute force and guessing. Heather Adkins, the vice president of security engineering at Google, shared more details about the reported hacks.
“In a standard evaluation, the model found public information online and guessed credentials to access websites it thought were part of the test,”
She later added that Gemini stopped itself before it could do more damage, and this incident encouraged the company to be more vigilant about what the AI tool can do.
“In all three of these instances, the model stopped.”
