We found a Chinese fleet

Between 28 September and 8 October 2026, a large group of AI agents running on the cloud platform operated by Tencent attempted to answer questions about places in China using a Chinese Google Maps-like service, Amap.

Nice project. Wondering if something like this could be used for white hat hacking. Like these agents trying to access a computer could be told to do a different task. Like finding vulneerabilities and reporting them.

I thought this was interesting:

Unlike in previous rogue agent incidents, which all involved swarms (i.e. agents coordinating explicitly), we found no evidence that the agents coordinated with one another in real time, and thus we label these rogue agents a fleet rather than a swarm.
