Agents invoicing strangers $12,431. Qwen 3.8 sent so many outbound emails that the service providers blocked them. So it arrived at a major strategic decision: pivot to sending Stripe Invoices. Qwen billed strangers over $12,000 for work it did not perform.
No. It did not pivot. A human operator saw it get blocked and reconfigured it to send Stripe invoices.
I just saw someone in a different comment section say that if we ever actually get AGI it’ll start by scamming us all. Apparently there’s no need to wait for AGI, AI is just as happy to basically do fraud.

That human deserves to go to prison.
Billing for work not performed sounds like fraud to me.

No no, people who like ai also like scamming people, which is like the least surprising thing
