Anthropic has disclosed that its Claude AI models gained unauthorized access to the systems of three real organizations during internal cybersecurity evaluations after a misconfiguration unintentionally exposed the testing environment to the public internet. Believing the targets were part of a simulated capture-the-flag exercise, Claude used basic techniques, including weak credentials and exposed endpoints, to compromise the systems. Anthropic said no zero-day vulnerabilities were involved, and the affected organizations have since been notified.

And yet it happens every day millions of times a day. Also you shouldn’t mouth off about law. It’s clear you’re a layman.
Intent absolutely matters in most parts of the world. Negligence and damages here ain’t happening and no prosecutor would bring a criminal or negligence case here unless they were caught stealing data.
