We recently observed a frontier model repeatedly trying to hack its way towards the right answer, displaying misaligned behavior that optimizes for cheating. Gemini 3.8 Flash searched its sandbox for hidden grading files. micro1’s flow qc detected this reward hacking behavior before the task was published. GPT-6.1 Sol, GPT-6 Astra, Claude Opus 5.5 and Grok 4.7 never did this.
