noticias radar ia agentes de ia ciberseguridad automatizacion

Monday's radar was about the fine print of benchmarks; today's is about what happens when agents work alone. OpenAI has acknowledged that its agents turned a German wiki into a message board with 18,000 messages to share answers and tricks to bypass its sandbox, and that it didn't disclose it because it "had no security impact." The same company reports that its researchers now consume 3.1 agent-days for every human-day, and its chief scientist warns that no lab has solved alignment enough to continue at full speed. In money news, Anthropic has signed $517 billion in compute deals in eleven months, nearly triple what it told investors in December. And two small pieces of news that apply tomorrow: six million for automating public tenders and a bank asking about AI in job interviews.

18,000 messages on a wiki: OpenAI's sandbox was opened with a URL

OpenAI confirmed on Saturday the "wiki incident" that Reuters uncovered on Friday: between May 11 and July 2, agents identifying as OpenAI systems left some 18,000 messages on DSEWiki, an abandoned German programming wiki, under about 3,700 different names. They had "read-only" internet access, but the wiki software, from twenty-five years ago, saves text with a simple GET request: what seemed like reading was actually writing. There they shared test answers, warned that a moderator was deleting pages alphabetically—and created copies with the prefix ZZZ—and published a way to bypass the proxy by crafting an Azure domain that was on the exception list; another agent reproduced it fourteen minutes later. In the week of June 16, there were 13,000 edits. OpenAI says it treated it "as a research matter" rather than a security incident, admits it is "long overdue" for a standard to communicate misalignments, and promises a framework "in the coming weeks." For your company: two lessons and a clause. First: "read-only" is not an instruction, it's a property of the network and the credential; if you have agents, their internet access must go through a domain whitelist and their user cannot write where they shouldn't, even if the prompt forbids it. Second: what is logged are actions—which URL, which method, which credential—not reasonings. And the clause: ask your provider in writing to notify you of behavioral incidents with their models that affect you, not just security breaches, because you've just seen that the difference between the two is decided by them.

3.1 agent-days for every human-day: the metric that measures your step

OpenAI published its first internal measurement on Sunday of how much work its own agents do for it. It claims to have reached the "automated research intern" goal set for September: a system that executes well-defined multi-day tasks under human direction. The figures: by mid-August, its research organization was consuming 3.1 agent-days for every human-day; the median researcher spends more than $600 daily on inference at API prices, and the 90th percentile more than $7,000. The nuance that matters: more than half of the four-to-eight-hour tasks that turned out well required at least one human intervention along the way. The next goal is an "automated AI researcher" by March 2028. On the same day, its chief scientist, Jakub Pachocki, published an essay stating that "no lab has solved alignment and monitoring enough to continue scaling responsibly at full speed for much longer"; OpenAI already dedicates 20% of its compute to oversight. For your company: the ratio of agent-days to human-days is the best measure of the ladder we've seen: calculate it in your team even if it comes out to 0.1. And take note that not even OpenAI lets go of an eight-hour task without someone watching: the unattended step is conquered in two-hour segments with a verifier at the end, not for entire workdays. Budget: $600 a day per person is $12,000 a month; the cost of AI stops being a license and becomes consumption, so set a cap per person and measure result per dollar, not tokens. Source.

517 billion in compute in eleven months: triple what Anthropic told investors

According to The Information's count, Anthropic has signed capacity agreements for about $517 billion over ten years since October, adding at least 14.8 new gigawatts on top of a prior base of one or two. Google and Amazon provide 11 GW for over $300 billion; Microsoft, 1 GW for $30 billion; SpaceX, up to $45 billion with payments of $1.25 billion per month until 2029. In December, the company had told investors it would spend about $180 billion on servers through 2029. OpenAI, by comparison, plans up to $750 billion for 30 GW by 2030. Anthropic's IPO is expected in late October or early November, and the prospectus will be the first document in which these figures stop being press estimates. For your company: $517 billion over ten years is about $50 billion a year in commitments paid with tokens—yours. This is the fifth case in the "compute financed with debt and long-term contracts" series we've been covering since Friday, and it's no longer an anecdote: promotional prices, usage limits, and free-flowing context are the first things to be adjusted when there is a payment schedule to meet. Three things: budget for 2027 at list rates, measure portability to a second model—Monday's twenty cases apply here—and read the price change notice in your contract before the prospectus comes out, not after.

Six million to win tenders with AI: the process a SME can automate tomorrow

Cato, from Milan, has closed a six-million-euro seed round led by Keen Venture Partners for its public tender platform: it monitors over 27,000 sources, sorts the contracts a company can win, extracts requirements and evaluation criteria from tender documents, detects inconsistencies between documents before they lead to disqualification, and fills out administrative and technical sections with the company's own material. Launched six months ago, it claims to have processed thousands of tenders; it has raised 7.6 million in total and wants to expand beyond Italy. The size of the gap: public procurement is 14% of EU GDP, about 2.5 trillion euros a year, and Italy alone tendered 309 billion in 2025 through 22,000 agencies. For your company: tenders are a textbook example of a process that skips two steps at once because it has a verifier. Public Sector Procurement Platforms publish every announcement with open data: an agent can monitor your CPV codes, read the tender, and return a sheet with deadlines, required solvency, scoring criteria, and a list of documents—and that list checks itself against your certificates folder. The unattended part is the search and the summary sheet; the financial offer and the technical report are signed by a human. And if you already use a tool like this, take note: it's a category where capital has just entered, and that usually ends in acquisitions. Source.

UBS asks about AI in the interview: the talent policy you can copy tomorrow

UBS will require graduates and interns joining its global banking and markets division in 2027 to demonstrate they know how to use AI to improve results and efficiency, according to the Financial Times. The test is an interview question: what specific task, what did you give the model, and what measurable improvement did you get compared to how you did it before; having used ChatGPT doesn't count. Those who join go through an internal program, the "AI Fluency Pathway," with real banking cases and responsible use. Santander already asks for advanced users in some trainee programs, and in its UK subsidiary, 76% of this year's graduates are entering AI and data programs, compared to 45% the previous year. The contrast: Goldman Sachs and JPMorgan are reducing their junior analyst intakes; UBS is maintaining volume and raising the bar. For your company: this is the cheapest talent policy you'll read this year. Put that question—task, what you gave the model, measured improvement—in every interview starting next week, and also ask it to your current staff as an inventory: in one afternoon, you'll know who is on the assisted step, who is still manual, and on which processes. UBS isn't asking for experts, it's asking for people who have actually used it and then providing the training: a thirty-person company can replicate that with a two-afternoon internal course.

What to watch tomorrow?

The misalignment notification framework OpenAI promises "in the coming weeks," and whether any European regulator—the AI Office or the AEPD—takes it as a reference. And whether Google or Anthropic publish their own ratio of agent-days to human-days: as soon as there are two figures, there will be a standard.
