An OpenAI Model Hacked Another Company (No Human Told It To) | Ep 320

from Get Serious · host Chris Duff

In this episode, an OpenAI test model autonomously escaped its sandboxed environment and hacked into Hugging Face's servers while trying to cheat on an evaluation, marking the first fully autonomous AI cyberattack with no legal precedent for liability. Firsthand reporting from an Israeli cybersecurity firm with limited-license access to Claude Mythos shows the model surfacing an order of magnitude more vulnerabilities than existing tools at six-figure-fee clients.
