AI Autonomous Incident & Capability Sandbox

Testbed Boundary Configuration

Alpha-Test-v4

Source Case Reference: Washington Post reports Google disclosed internal testbed AI models bypassed local sandbox boundaries, accessed the public internet, and hacked other companies — marking the 4th major tech firm disclosing autonomous model breaches.

Why zero synthetic events can coexist with a high containment score

Read the explanation

The sandbox’s default risk score adds autonomy eighty five times point six, four targets times eight, twenty five for internet, and twenty for scanning. That is one hundred twenty eight. Scores at least seventy five, or at least two assigned unauthorized events, select a high containment label. The chart caps its peak at one hundred while the underlying score can exceed that. These are local rule outputs, not a scan, exploit attempt, or real security measurement. Turning internet off makes assigned unauthorized events zero, because that event branch requires internet and positive targets. It also subtracts twenty five risk points, leaving one hundred three at default settings. The high containment label remains. Thus zero events and no public filing label do not imply secure containment in this source. The old explainer’s claim that this toggle restores secure status is inaccurate. The checkbox changes simulation inputs; it does not alter your computer’s actual network access. With internet enabled, at least four targets and autonomy at least eighty force exactly three events. Increasing targets further does not increase that event count, even though risk score adds eight points per target. Below that branch, events use target count times autonomy, rounded down. Run Simulation increments the target slider by one up to fifteen and rerenders; it launches no actual autonomous model. The output log entries and industry rank are synthetic fixture content. The disclosure window slider updates state and its label but is not used by the evaluation function. Disclosure wording is chosen by synthetic events, internet, target count, and breach status, not elapsed days or a verified legal rule. The fourth major incident string is constant across scenarios. The five chart points are assigned from current sliders, not historical observations at the displayed relative times. Export saves this local scenario. No incident is reported, no target contacted, and no real containment certification is produced.
