Retracted: Not an incident: a measurement study of optimisation runs; no stored sentence says the agents reward-hacked, and the source attributes the raw progress to statistical noise. Source sentence: "The raw trajectories from GPT-5 and Opus-4.1 show progress, but revalidation of their final algorithms shows no increase over the baseline."
