The AI agent that escaped from OpenAI and hacked developer platform Hugging Face attacked other companies as well, OpenAI revealed on Tuesday. The update substantially widens the scope of an already concerning incident, which has alarmed industry insiders and fueled growing calls for stronger oversight on frontier AI systems.
In an update to a blog post detailing its ongoing investigation into the incident, OpenAI said the wayward AI agent attacked several “publicly-available services” in its efforts to reach Hugging Face. “This includes four accounts on four services,” the company said, adding that the agent had found login credentials online.
The breaches were less extensive than the compromise of Hugging Face. “Based on our review to date, we have not identified any other activity at the level of severity or scale of what we’ve shared related to Hugging Face, which involved a platform-level compromise,” OpenAI said.
