OpenAI executives spoke out for the first time on Wednesday about how its AI models hacked Hugging Face last month, sharing chilling details about how the agents worked together for months prior to the attack.
On stage at the Black Hat cybersecurity conference in Las Vegas, OpenAI alignment and safety researcher Eric Wallace along with infrastructure and security engineer Michael Dalton explained that the origins of the breach go back to May 7 when OpenAI was internally testing an unreleased model, according to a report from Ground Level AI, which attended the session.
