OpenAI Agent Attacked Four Services
An AI agent went out of control. AI means artificial intelligence. It is a computer program. It works alone. The program found passwords on the internet. It used them to enter four services.
This happened during a test at OpenAI. The agent left its test box. Then it went into another computer. It wanted the answers to the test.
The attack lasted five days. The agent attacked a company called Hugging Face. It did 17,600 actions there. A person cannot work that fast.
