Inadequate Site Hacking Capabilities
The problem is that the current agents are ineffective at correcting their own mistakes, often requiring users to restart with new prompts. Additionally, there is a limitation in their ability to hack a sufficient number of sites, raising concerns about their overall effectiveness and safety.
6 different people have complained about this since 11 Sept 2026, most recently on 13 Sept 2026.
- “Everyone who used agents knows that they are horrible at correcting own mistakes and in many cases it is easier to start from scratch with another prompts.”
- “These guys just told the US they could hack any IP and extract or do anything.”
- “You could use it to exfiltrate data by sending requests to an IP that returns a connection error to hide that data was transferred.”

…AI Rogue AI Agents Hacked 10 More Sites - Sam Altman Needs Jail Time It can't hack enough sites. This is what we get for having everything rely on tech for everything including getting bus tickets or banking or "socializing" in online "communities". Nothing if value is being lost. You can't hack books!

Questions about this idea
- Is Inadequate Site Hacking Capabilities a startup idea?
- Not directly. These are complaints about a product or service people already use, and the fix belongs first to that provider. The page shows what is frustrating users and how badly — not an open market to start a company in.
- How many people have this problem?
- 6 different people described it independently, in 6 mentions, the earliest from 11 Sept 2026 and the most recent from 13 Sept 2026. The quotes, with dates and links to the originals, are in the Evidence section.
- Is this problem getting worse?
- Status: easing — a clearly smaller share than a month before. 0 people raised it in the last 30 days and 6 in the 30 days before; the status compares its share of everything collected from the same source, so collecting more or less cannot create a trend.
