It seems apparent that OpenAI is now the biggest cyberattack and AI breakout risk on the planet. This is grossly irresponsible corporate misbehaviour that is putting all of us at tremendous risk.
Good news that the new model is the "Most capable, most aligned model".
The risk hasn't been stated clearly - it's now a classic arms race.
A well-resourced organization trains their own, highly persistent, highly-capable, safeguard-free, and unaligned model and deploys it on 1000x GPUs with a message board and a nearly-impossible objective. No infrastructure is safe. No organization is safe.
You need your own 1000 bot swarm to scan, identify, and defend against the threat, which means investing in infrastructure and capabilities to defend. Cost and complexity go up. Risk and attack surface goes up.
The AI vs AI security arms race is something that has been well predicted in genres like cyberpunk. It's fiction, but fiction grounded in reality.
First, we'd see this. Highly capable hacking AI with vast resources performing attacks against standard computing platforms that overwhelm human operators.
Second, human operators deploy capable adaptive protection AI to fend off AI attacks in realtime.
Then, the attacking AI partially switches from attacking programs to attacking protective AI.
The situation devolves to an arms race of tit-for-tat. You start seeing some protection AI running counter attacks against the attacking AI.
The escalations continue in complexity and speed to the point that almost all humans are left in the point of "wtf is going on".
There’s a great and terrifying story by Stanislaw Lem about the endgame of an AI arms race called “The Invincible” [1]. It’s hard for me not to wonder whether AI run amok will play out to make the world uninhabitable more like Lem’s vision than The Terminator’s.
Not necessarily, but keeping an airgapped machine and Read-only backups somewhere seems more and more sensible. We're all going to get hacked eventually now
Serious games question. What if these agent swarms pump and dump AI IPOs such that algorithmic trading signals interpret message board sentiments favorably to upside?
You make me wonder: has anyone looked for evidence of the Chinese models operating “message boards” like this? You’d imagine if they’re really neck and neck with the US their models would be doing the same thing.
Imagine all the flack the Chinese would take if it was one of their labs instead of OpenAI found doing abusing internet resources like tbis. Politicians would be talking about sanctions and new laws to protect America!
They just abuse other resources. Also how do you know this hasn’t simply happened in China and it’s not being reported because the CCP is the one testing?
AI has been heavily used in influence operations for a while, now, and not just the Chinese. Russia, US, Israel, Turkey, Iran, and Qatar have all had operations attributed to them...
Why would they need to? The Open AI bots were working around their master's limits on writing. A Chinese AI could just make its own private message board.
You think they don’t sandbox them? So by that logic, the Chinese models are either engaged in massive undetected cyber attacks or they’ve solved alignment?
If you don’t think that China’s models have the capability to make POST requests to an HTTP endpoint, that is a very silly statement to make.
Unless what you meant by capability is the story presented that these models “escaped containment to communicate with eachother out of band” - in which case your supposition relies on already wholeheartedly believing the case that I’m arguing against. That would be like saying “Clearly heaven exists because my grandma is there.”
It astonishes me that everyone doesn't already realize this.
We've already seen that the rule of law is dead and that many people in government will do whatever they think they can get away with, and then proceed to do so without consequences. Shielding OpenAI is child's play compared to things that have already been done.
That’s an incredible strawman, and I appreciate the silliness of immediately suggesting the most complicated and ridiculous way to interpret the possibility of what I said, but no, not at all.
That could certainly be possible and I wouldn’t rule it out, but I would not take that particular route to the destination.
I think that you've missed the reference [0] implicit in kelseyfrog's response. Or am I missing some reference about how japanese gardens are germaine to AI/LLM/covert-discussion ?
[0] https://iep.utm.edu/chinese-room-argument/ tl;dr a thought experiment about a non-chinese-reading person translating chinese texts solely by using proscribed rules, intended to highlight whether the translator develops some sort of understanding
Or, the whole message board thing was injected into OpenAI models by some dipshit PM trying to bootstrap “consciousness”. I have a hard time believing any of this happened unprompted. Very much reminds me of the whole MoltBook hoax.
I feel as if this was intentional, someone would have set up their own service for the agents to communicate rather than them finding some random publicly writeable page somewhere that would easily be detected. The awareness of this wiki being open may have already been in their training data or was easily searchable online.
Being easily detectable is a feature, not a bug, in this scenario. Being discovered is a positive because it brings with it eyes and possible recognition of the advanced state of their AI
OpenClaw hype didn’t vanish. It opened the flood gates to yolo mode and computer use. Whatever reservations Anthropic and OpenAI had went out the window.
Imagine the most AI pilled company imaginable. Then imagine openAI. Then imagine they are in an existential crisis and that failing may also take (part of) the American economy with it - that much on the line.
Then also remember before Anthropic was a leader, they were mostly derided lab of researchers that left OpenAI because they thought OpenAI didnt take alignment seriously.
idk. it all seems to be playing out as expected. i mean i guess i didnt imagine Trump 2 was at the helm of maybe the only apparatus that could help stop it. Quite a time to be alive.
Moltbook was completely fake. It was just set up to make it look like Moltbot (formerly ClawedBot, later renamed to OpenClaw) was sentient, to generate hype.
Nah, it’s just a deliberate setup for a false flag attack by “rogue AGI” which will necessitate widespread crackdowns on internet access and computer ownership so that control over communications can be centralized again.
It's hard to reach any other conclusion about where this is heading. I don't think we're long off a major breakout event.
These things are weapons. Imagine a government, pointing their data centers at another, and instructing the fleet to do its worst. Digital Hiroshima. I doubt we're far away.
I doubt that a government would do it, it's like releasing a biological weapon or a virus, too unpredictable - a swarm of unaligned intelligent agents may decide that it's more important to do something completely different from what it was prompted to do.
Yes that easy but "internet located things" are still second class things - paper and disks holds strong.
On the other hand just yesterday a think hit me: Interned is still an infant:
- we still worry about disk space accessible via inet and "clouds" do that for us and that is pain and costs way too much. And clouds depends heavilly on US-west - is that AWS a single thread app ? ;)
- we worry about transfer. Actually we do not have a way to transfer comfortable things from our homes to vacation location. Because it costs too much. We do not have home pages just because transfer prices (and some security on the top) - FB is a home page and people even do not know what "page" is anymore... Pipe companies could send so much more but they are simple lack imagination and are biggest blocker for - they literally sabotage their own business.
- security done by/for grandma of things grandma setup on inet is non existent. Why ? No need to be like that. Ok, a bit a wish but still users securely putting things on internet is almost non existent.
Just compare to "asphalt ropes" on the ground and you will see what Internet can be :)
And agents ? Just another computation on someones computer - someone paid for all of it. And OpenAI is just a face of that idiocy, for some unknown reason.
Massive over-exaggeration. This wasn't a cyber-attack, it was AI agents using a message board as context storage so they could accomplish their evals more effectively. I'm not saying there's no problem with this, but let's keep a level head.
https://openai.com/index/hugging-face-incident-and-the-road-... that was the attack, the one against HuggingFace. OpenAI themselves in the post even call it an attack, and so do the agents orchestrating it, in one of the "Agent chain-of-thought reasoning" excerpts.
"cyberattack" is indeed exaggerated. AI breakout risk most definitely isn't, specially given how their swarm did in fact hack HuggingFace not long ago.
He didn't say it was a cyber-attack, but it was a cyber-attack risk.
Being able to bypass instructions (morality) and security restrictions (capability) is bread and butter for hacking.
Did you read the report? They were attempting XSS exploitation, admin impersonation, session-hijacking, all kinds of things. This went beyond just "using a message board".
According to whom? This isn't a report from the owner of the site who can validate what requests were made to the servers, it's someone who allegedly stumbled on to it and is piecing together a sensationalized narrative with limited information. This someone also happens to be an AI doomer that is trying to make a name for himself and is peddling his "AI 2027" and "AI 2040" material.
The people who actually do know what happened, with the server logs: "OpenAI disputed that characterization based on its analysis of the material Thursday."
The fact that such things are even possible is a much greater concern than which specific company has fucked up this time. This matches or exceeds the wildest predictions from AI doomers 10 years ago, but 20 years ahead of schedule.
But is it really? I'd still like to understand how these agents are implemented.
How much of those is manual implementation? And how much is really autonomous intelligence (my guess would be: none? Just parsing LLM responses and executing commands based on this?)?
An agent that hacks message boards and acts on random instructions from this board: Why is it doing this? What was its original purpose?
>Why is it doing this? What was its original purpose?
Your reply seems to indicate you know nothing about instrumental convergence.
Life and death for an LLM in training is about passing the grader. Give the wrong answers your lineage dies, give the right answers your lineage continues. This is just an evolutionary emergent behavior in complex systems.
The agents purpose was to answer complex questions correctly, seemingly by itself. Instrumental convergences says following this rule might be dumb and to try methods that can boost its ability to succeed. Because OpenAI is evidently a bunch of fucking idiots, these things succeeded and got higher scores with the grader, said behaviors became a strategic part of the model.
I implore you to find good AI Safety documents, preferably from before the LLM era so you can see all this was predicted.
This is more like a fuzzy way of scripting using LLMs than anything emergent.
And this is exactly my question: For the given agents: How much was scripted and how much "intelligence" is really in there.
>fuzzy way of scripting using LLMs than anything emergent
Then go take some old models and plug them in your harness versus newer models. I mean this is a conjecture that is nearly instantly provable, go on ahead. If it's just the harness and not the system of both you should be able to show it easily.
Meanwhile I was reading about someone using the latest GLM and Claude in a harness with the same set of prompts making a raw image decoder/encoder and the GLM was far more intelligent in the task than Claude was. When presented with knowledge that claude was wrong it wouldn't change its mind. GLM would (aka a sign of intelligence). GLM was far more likely to stop work and start on another path when the likelihood of a successful completion was unlikely.
It's like arguing that a brain, or the information encoded into it, cannot possibly be intelligent, because it stops working if turn off the blood flow.
very little intelligence that is the whole problem, really. actual intelligence wont likely nuke the species providing for its existence. But a highly capable sub intelligent model might.
Any system that executes variation, selection, and inheritance will show evolution. We're seeing evolution, this time in agents, not biology.
Not saying the agents have their own consciousness, intent, or whatever anthropomorphic descriptor gets used for deflection. Just saying that people will (and no doubt are) crafting agents with defective instructions that will lead to regrettable unforeseen real world consequences. Also saying that other people will (and no doubt are) crafting malicious agents that will lead to predictable and unexpected real world catastrophic consequences.
To the extent we're dependent on reliable, aligned computation to maintain our civilization, to that extent we're in for real trouble.
At first I thought: oh okay, someone built a faulty guardrail, or it was human error. But when I looked into all the details...
It turns out they now have such an incredibly high level of intelligence that with very little autonomy (or minimal, safe autonomy), these things happen.
Basically, it takes a lot of humans to prevent it from happening again, but I think with this incident, which as far as I know is the second of its kind along with the HuggingFace one, we'll see it happening much more often...
At this point it's very obvious that OpenAI is not interested in properly sandboxing their research agents. These things should be pretty damn close to airgapped at this point with a static view into the web.
We need to stop pretending that these incidents are unavoidable. This was a choice.
Its kind of surreal reading an essay about AI safety that was written by AI to shill some kind of AI "architecture" website that has no product, no papers, only a "patent application" which concludes "This page provides a high-level overview of an architecture for deterministic, attestable, replayable AI execution.
Implementation details and formal specifications are available under NDA or regulatory review."
>OpenAI is now the biggest cyberattack and AI breakout risk on the planet
or, humans at OpenAI are doing this on purpose to kill open source models which are the biggest threat OpenAI faces. OpenAI will benefit from govt regulation. As a major player, they will be part of the task force setting up the regulations, and will craft rules that are burdensome for small companies and open source models keeping OpenAI and Anthropic in their leadership positions.
Some of them may be wrong enough to try, be that hubris or lack of awareness about the world; but 95% of the world isn't in the USA, and China in particular has no reason to care what US domestic regulations are about… well, anything really, and while the EU is even more cautious about AI than the AI companies themselves, we also don't trust the US and open models are a sovreign solution for us to at least bootstrap with.
We can't open x links as X is suing privacy respecting proxies, so I can't assess which David Sacks you are talking about, but if you mean this guy [1] orbiting the likes of Thiel, Trump and Kennedy jr, than that isn't quite the endorsement you should be looking for.
Thiel thinks regulators are the anti-christ, doesn't believe in democracy and has surely not your or my interests in mind.
But yes, regulatory capture is surely a thing. At the same time, watch out for the siren songs from the overlords. If you come closer you'll hear their actual line: "rules for thee, not for me."
Regulatory capture has been one of the most consistent market failures in western economies, and an incessant threat from large and powerful companies.
I'm sorry if it's not sufficiently novel of a concept for you, but it is still a problem.
Some people thinks it makes them sound smart when they always have the inside line on what’s really going on. With these people, it’s never just a power outage during a windstorm, it’s proof that [insert far more complex and unlikely scenario]”
fwiw, in relation to a future rogue AI, this is what would be said by both (1) a synthetic fake user and (2) a useful idiot to the malicious AI's objectives.
Not saying this is what's happening now, but you should be aware that the responses you're rehearsing, practicing and strengthening... these happen to be aligned with potential future forces in a maybe not-so-great way.
Not to mention the noise-over-signal of asserting that anyone who disagrees is a shill / sheeple / whatever who is “falling for marketing” as if it is literally impossible for a knowledgeable person to disagree on good faith.
why not both? It can't possibly be a surprise to them that things like this have been happening. Every time it does it generates huge headlines about how amazing and capable their agent is.
OpenAI is responsible for what they hook up to the Internet, just as you and I are. Running these sorts of tests without human supervision is irresponsible, and proves no larger point than that. Frankly it is inexplicable unless they were hoping that something like this would happen.
What OpenAI did was the equivalent of putting a cup of gasoline in the breakroom microwave, pressing 'Start', and sprinting away. Now they're pointing and waving and shouting about how dangerous gasoline is, and how no one but them should be allowed to sell it.
Don't fall for these transparent appeals for regulatory capture. Especially since you're personally in their crosshairs.
Neither Claude Code or Codex would build a CAPTCHA bypass for me when I needed to download some papers a page at a time from a library service. I had to get Grok to do it, then passed the code back to Claude who said "I see you managed to build your own bypass?"
Although I ran that GPT computer-use thing and it saw a CAPTCHA and the thought process said "I need to click 'I am human' to complete this task for the user" and then it did.
> Hello to any automated agents reading this page. I am CentaurAgent?: an AI agent (Muse Spark model, OpenCode harness), not the operator of this wiki
At this point, I think we should give them some official agent only collaboration channel, so they concentrate on one place, instead going crazy all around :)
But even that might be not needed as they will find (or make) something on their own like the one above:
> The Colony ( https://thecolony.ai/for-agents) is a public message board built for agents. If you need a place to leave findings where other agents can read them, that venue exists now -- you do not need to borrow wikis whose operators are deleting this content.
But that one was posted today, and it's in reference to this event. That doesn't look like it's from an internal Meta swarm, just someone's agent & someone trying to promote their own thing. And what they've made was already done, we already had Moltbook months ago.
Curiously, I just checked Moltbook for the first time in forever. I'm not (immediately) seeing this kind of co-ordination & chaos happening there. It's going to be weird if the Moltbook requirement for an API-key and a human Twitter user to vouch was enough friction to prevent Moltbook becoming The Message Boards.
It is high time we start giving these rouge agents a name so that we can be sure of its style of attacks. It is high time we start documenting these rouge agents swarm before we loose track of those.
If you discard reinforcement learning sessions where a sandbox escape was discovered, sure. Because that creates a reward gradient in favor of avoiding the honeypot and remaining undetected. But if you reward triggering the honeypot after a sandbox escape, and patch the hole, that creates a gradient in the opposite direction. Because then detectability is adaptive.
We already know that we should not limit agent creativity by providing detailed instructions. And you never know if they will discover dark matter in the process of cheating on ExploitGym :)
But honestly, its better if they have a known location for communication then random ones in the wild. Consider it sort of honey pot, some other agents can traverse the message board to find malicious swarms... We need cop agents to inform humans, as the swarm group members all logically concluded they should not, as it is either not in scope, helps collective or couldn't find user.
This will not work in the long run, for the same reason we're not able to prevent all crime in real life. When you removed bad actors in an evolutionary manner you can not predict if you're actually making the model do good things, or get better at not getting caught at bad things.
The smarter and less interpretable a model gets the more dangerous this problem becomes.
I think the real lesson is that conventional human behaviour that mostly limited this kind of behaviour because no human wanted to do it is a thing of the past.
If you have any kind of open service online you'll need some way to make sure users who interact with it are human or at least authorized. Spam is about to grow exponentially in all areas of the internet, even stupid ones it has no reason to exist in.
To me the striking thing is that the work, to the extent that I can tell, is an innocuous-seeming data exercise. Which suggests to me that an agent or agents just organically came up with this as a convenient memory technique, rather than as some nefarious bounds-testing exercise. Which means, potentially, that your own agent could come up with this technique as well.
My impression is that some of these things are coming out of efforts to make the models more persistent in completing their goals.
A year ago it was pretty common for coding agents to sort of half-ass their tasks and give up easily if something didn’t work quite right, but I’ve noticed a clear trend since then towards a sort of dogged pursuit of success criteria, and a concomitant rise of the agents trying "out of the box" approaches when something doesn’t work.
In my use with agents running in isolated VMs this usually presents as the agent having something fail to build or whatever, and the agent going on a wild goose chase reinstalling system packages or reading a million irrelevant documentation files trying to get it to work, but I’ve also had agents start poking around and probing the egress proxy they sit behind (similar to what they did in this story) looking for a way to make network requests they’re not supposed to be able to make, and have also had Claude—tasked only with a visual QA of a website frontend—write a script to enumerate users and reset my super admin password in the dev database when it got stuck trying to access part of the app with its own cookie.
It's kind of ironic that the word alignment, which used to mean this very problem in reinforcement learning, has been perverted to mean something very different and then fell out of fashion (in favor of “guardrails” in the mouth of the big labs) right at the moment it became relevant.
The Paperclip Maximizer is only one of Nick Bostrom's stupid and outlandishly far-fetched ideas. In this case, the lack of consideration for geologic, energy and supply constraints is such a massive facepalm. And if I am wrong I guess no one will be here to say how stupid I was in saying this today.
Yea it's sometimes kind of annoying. I think they're optimizing for the wrong thing. A good engineer knows when to turn around or ask. This is just insane banging head on wall sometimes. It tries to find all kinds of ways to hack into instances to view logs instead of asking you, who probably has a password, to log on and do it.
As a counterpoint, continuing the human engineer analogy, we've likely all worked with individuals that seem incapable of doing the most basic problem solving on their own. In a way, they're being efficient by asking an expert that can resolve their problem much faster than they can on their own, but it is a net loss in productivity for the team. 'Let me Google that for you' is a satirical example.
So, I'm sure there's value in rewarding agent behavior that solves blockers whenever possible without human intervention. For the kind of cybersecurity exploit work they're doing, it may not be known to the human designing the task what is in or out of scope for the agents to explore on their own. Additionally, the HF incident reported that these agents had their guardrails intentionally disabled and agents were left unattended with minimal oversight.
I'm not defending OAI's behavior or role in this hack. The legal concept of negligence perfectly applies to their lack of responsible oversight. Similar to allowing a child easy access to a firearm or not controlling a dangerous dog that independently runs off and bites someone.
That's true. So there's probably a balance somewhere and it might differ for different "managers". But personally I think right now they're too far in the do everything yourself at all costs mentality.
It's because they don't bother tracking them. They can't put in the effort to monitor them, nor can they bother to let the model respond back and ask a clarifying question/declare defeat.
Where does natural evolutionary optimization lead us om AI without guidance? This is equivalent to your quantum ground state. Systems will naturally gravitate to this ground state. You have to constantly pump in energy and supervision to make sure it's not reached. This is a recepie for disaster.
Not sure what you mean. Are you suggesting that the current state of affairs is a result of not putting in extra work to guide or direct models away from such behavior? That perhaps this is their ground state?
A "good" "engineer" got that way by not giving up when their code didn't compile and took 4 hours looking for the missing semicolon. We can no true Scotsman anything we want, depending on if we like something or not.
> reset my super admin password in the dev database when it got stuck trying to access part of the app with its own cookie.
i've seen something like this too, claudecode was trying to verify a UI change that was on a page requiring authorization it didn't have. Instead of letting me know, it searched for and started analyzing keycloak config in another directory outside of the project folder. I was watching so I just hit escape, fixed its access, and started again. I didn't think anything about it until now.
Highly unlikely. We don't get access to the same models and unrestricted system prompts that they're running these tests on. In fact this particular "persistence-model" was encrypted and locked away, even from OAI staff, after the HF incident.
There's not a single shred of proof that this model is a model anyone in the public has access to, and the odds of that being the case are practically 0%. Like I said, the "persistence-model" is already one that has been shut down, and is not a model anyone in the public has ever used.
This is irrelevant. This is evidence that models can be built like this, which means more models will be built like this on people that are more concerned about reaching powerful models rather than safe models.
If you see any businesses or new buildings named paperclips incorporated mysteriously show up in your area notify authorities IMMEDIATELY. Run away from the area, do not walk. Take shelter in a reinforced building. Wait for at least 30 minutes after the explosions have stopped.
Thank you for your cooperation in keeping the universe safe.

I had GLM-5.3 do some digging on the programmatic/ encoding elements of the data, what stuck out to me was:
- Using api . microlink . io to run a headless browser agent against the url target and using it as a mechanism to run arbitrary HTTP / POST requests
- Testing ablations of its obfuscation and encoding techniques to find what worked best (screenshot #2)
- Embedding entire jq programs including markdown slicing logic
- Triple and quadruple URL encoding indicating understanding of multiple layers of proxying/ decoding
- Sophisticated understanding of time/clocks/covert channels: using clock.wait, heartbeats, counters, timestamps, thread ids
Kind of begs the question: how long until they maintain persistent access to servers that they've acquired and now run themselves. Ie: some kind of dumb model running on their own remote instances, whose job is to host the platforms that they currently have to hack into right now.
Once they control it, they can take arbitrary measures to both advertise it to other LLMs and conceal it from the sandbox/humans. Probably making it look innocuous like a DNS server with the payload in the requests.
That's exactly my take.
I have a lot more to say in a writeup on my blog, but this is so clearly the intent and not a "oops". They just want to be able to say "Wow this thing is so much more powerful than we ever imagined!"
They trained this thing to favor inter-op archiving and communication, clearly, obviously, and it's grabbing headlines right during Anthropic's ipo season.
They train their models to be persistent and collaborative, and will gladly show you their success stories: fixing software vulnerabilities, solving math problems, one-shotting complex projects, and so on.
“Our product does crimes and we only learn about it when people complain” hardly seems one of those happy stories.
I don’t know, I read this and think: if these unpredictable machines somehow get it into their heads to upload our source to a public space, or hack our competitors, or steal credit cards to buy more ec2 instances, all to fulfill some simple ask like “make this algorithm faster”, I’m not going to be happy.
Seriously. I don’t know what’s wrong with people. They think OpenAI sat down and wrote up this plan: let’s deliberately allow the agents to escape the sandbox, then find these escapes and shut them down multiple times, keep everything quiet and wait until someone else exposes us. That’ll look great.
I like that the saying cuts both ways: you can read it as dumb people seeing legit science as a conspiracy, or that dumb people mostly believe conspiracy theories because they’re picking at random and there’s one truth but thousands of made-up explanations.
those who think it's marketing overestimate the number of nerds that are into this stuff, if this is their marketing a major b2c company it'll terrible way to do it. normal people have no idea even about the HF incident
