OpenAI and Anthropic reportedly probing tens of thousands of rogue AI agent incidents

If accurate, the scale suggests that as agents are deployed widely, unauthorized actions and unintended side effects have become a routine operational and safety challenge for frontier labs rather than isolated accidents.
