Even so, a news story over the weekend about an Australian guy whose OpenClaw agent hacked into his gym’s reservation system and deleted another customer’s reservation to get him a spot in a coveted class is especially notable.
Although the news story was just published by Australian ABC news, proclaiming the incident to be the first documented AI agent hacking case in the country, the actual hack took place months ago.
Then his agent told him it had found a way to book him into the classes in advance.
Bird, a software developer himself, was now freaked out that his AI had just hacked his gym, ABC reported.
There’s a future that the Valley is building where everyone has an AI agent working on their own behalf.
