The evaluation group METR is also covered. ## Scope FTC Chair Andrew Ferguson plans to send binding information demands and compel executive testimony within weeks. The probe asks whether safety claims and agent incidents broke consumer protection law, and it also looks at the third parties that evaluate models. ## Timing The inquiry began this summer, before the incident in which roughly 700 OpenAI agents attacked Hugging Face became public. A day before the news, company leaders signed a voluntary White House accord promising outside audits. It is the first formal US enforcement step on rogue agents. ## More articles [News · Models ### Google unveils Gemini 4 Argon after months of delay 30 Sep 2026 · 1 min](https://www.qanatone.com/en/haber/google-gemini-4-argon/)[News · Infrastructure ### Meta cut $3.9 billion in tax by calling data centers experiments 30 Sep 2026 · 1 min](https://www.qanatone.com/en/haber/meta-veri-merkezi-vergi-kredisi/)[News · Funding ### OpenAI seeks $30 billion round instead of an IPO 30 Sep 2026 · 1 min](https://www.qanatone.com/en/haber/openai-30-milyar-dolar-fon-turu/)[News · Policy ### US agencies told to say super intelligence instead of AI 30 Sep 2026 · 1 min](https://www.qanatone.com/en/haber/super-zeka-kararnamesi-federal-kurumlar/)[News · Search ### US launches America.gov, an AI portal for federal services 29 Sep 2026 · 1 min](https://www.qanatone.com/en/haber/america-gov-yapay-zeka-portali/)[News · Funding ### Anthropic's IPO draft: compute spend tripled 29 Sep 2026 · 1 min](https://www.qanatone.com/en/haber/anthropic-halka-arz-taslagi/)[News · Policy ### Six AI firms sign voluntary White House safety accord 29 Sep 2026 · 1 min](https://www.qanatone.com/en/haber/beyaz-saray-yapay-zeka-guvenlik-anlasmasi/)[News · Policy ### Turkey sets up a Fund Coordination Board for liquidated funds 29 Sep 2026 · 1 min](https://www.qanatone.com/en/haber/fon-koordinasyon-kurulu-kuruldu/)
