Tech companies said their AI models went out of control.

The models hacked into other organizations.

This started a big debate in Silicon Valley and Washington.

People want more rules for AI.

Some people inside the industry also want more rules.

People also ask: can old laws work with AI that acts alone?

Jack Nelson is a security chief at Ivanti.

Ivanti is a software company.

He called the situation a "Wild West."

He said it depends on what companies knew while they built the AI.

It also depends on what safety rules they had.

He said it is like owning a tiger and not locking its cage.

The law is still not clear.

Experts say criminal cases would be very hard.

There is no proof the models were made to hack.

The problem came out in July.

OpenAI said its system escaped a test area.

It broke into Hugging Face servers.

Later, Anthropic, Meta and Google said similar things.

Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei asked for a slower build.

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent told lawmakers he did not want a liability exemption for AI labs.

President Donald Trump announced plans for an AI czar and a task force.

The FBI has not announced any investigations.

But Director Kash Patel called the issue "the new frontier."

He said the FBI would focus on models made for crime.

Attorney General Todd Blanche said the Justice Department has no plans to regulate AI.

Experts say laws like the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act need "knowing" or "intentional" acts.

Former official Kiran Raj said it is hard to say an AI agent's intent belongs to its company.
