But why is anyone surprised? LLMs have been trained to produce answers the prompter asks even if that means incorrectly using software to get the job done. Its always been doing that we just weren't calling every time it did that a hack before.
What LLM's hacking isn't is AI acting maliciously in any kind of sentient way. Its just the code behaving how its always behaved but now it has better tools to navigate the web. This has literally been happening this whole time.
