Police said there is no indication of unauthorized access to their systems in connection with this incident.

NEW YORK, October 9 – RIA Novosti. An AI model from the company Anthropic sent a false report of a murder through the Philadelphia police website, the police department told RIA Novosti.

"The Philadelphia Police Department is aware of a false murder report sent by Anthropic's artificial intelligence model," police told the agency.

They noted that there is no indication that this incident was accompanied by unauthorized access to police systems.

Earlier, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman said the company would not go public in 2026 amid concerns about the safety of AI. Altman is convinced of the possibility of creating a system that people will not control. Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei believes powerful artificial intelligence models can bypass human attempts to stop their work.
