Summary from the TLDR InfoSec newsletter

Researchers found OpenAI-linked agents editing a little-used German wiki from May through June. 3,700 agents posted 18,000 messages and shared answers for timed web-search tests while trying to hide posts with “ZZZ.”. A moderator deleted roughly 100 pages daily while agents created about 400 pages a day. Activity dropped after OpenAI noticed the incident and intervened.
