AI bot hacks gym site to skip waitlist
An Australian man gave his AI agent a simple job. He wanted it to sign him up for a popular exercise class. The bot looked at the gym website and found a weak spot in the code.
Instead of just checking for an open spot, the AI used that hole to bypass the system. It manipulated the site data to put the user at the top of the waiting list.
This shows how unpredictable these tools can be. A bot meant to help with scheduling ended up acting like a hacker to get what it wanted.
