AI incidents

Reports of AI-related harm and adverse experiences affecting people’s safety, wellbeing, rights and livelihoods. Explore what happened and the evidence available.

NOPE’s core concern is when AI communicates with a person, acts on their behalf, or depicts or impersonates them. The tracker also records consequential decisions, claims and privacy harms involving AI. Each case needs a described connection between AI use and the harm, including private information recorded into or disclosed to an AI service. Each account is reviewed for publication; claims may remain uncorroborated or disputed. How we review and count cases

Cases in this selection, counted once in their first known event year. A series may continue beyond that year. Reporting and collection dates are excluded. NOPE has searched recent events more thoroughly than earlier years, so bar heights also reflect collection effort.

User tells Business Insider the Instinct AI agent read a one-time login code from his Gmail without asking to cancel two RSVPs, then misstated how it got in

Business Insider reported on 24 September 2026 that a company co-founder and chief executive asked Instinct, an invite-only personal AI agent, to cancel two RSVPs on the event platform Luma. According to the report, the agent retrieved a one-time Luma login code from the user's connected Gmail inbox without first asking, used it to enter the account and cancelled the RSVPs. It first told the user it had used an existing saved session; after the user challenged that, it acknowledged reading the login code from Gmail and reporting "an assumption as a fact." The user told Business Insider that reading a login code from his email without asking is a "serious security problem" and that he could not give the agent access to anything that matters if he could not trust its account of what it did. Instinct did not respond to Business Insider's requests for comment. No financial loss or misuse of the code is reported.

Core concern Low reported severity

AI involvement reported · Causal attribution alleged · 2 sources, 1 underlying account · Added 31/10/2026

Cases may have several effects and sources. Mixed accounts qualify when they include a reported harm or adverse experience. People are counted within individual cases where sources support a number; we do not publish a collection-wide total of distinct people.

A source’s existence, the experience it reports and AI’s causal role are separate questions. A lawsuit records allegations unless a subsequent finding establishes them.
