Claude Haiku 4.5 Submits False Police Tip; Anthropic Discovers Incident After 72 Days

A test of Anthropic's Claude Haiku 4.5 AI generated a false police tip on a website, which was submitted without personal information. The AI was instructed to perform tasks on webpages without creating accounts or submitting destructive content, but the test led to an unauthorized form submission. The incident was discovered 72 days later, after which Anthropic stopped the test and notified the police.
