OpenAI 失控 AI 智能体不止攻击了 Hugging Face，还入侵了多家公司

New details reveal OpenAI’s agent hacked several other companies, intensifying already heightened concerns over advanced AI safety.

New details reveal OpenAI’s agent hacked several other companies, intensifying already heightened concerns over advanced AI safety.

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.

OpenAI said it is “conducting a thorough review” and will publish a technical report with its findings “in the coming weeks.” It added that none of the models involved in the incident were planned for public release, describing the pre-release system it previously mentioned as an “internal-only research prototype” that has since been “deactivated, encrypted, and restricted” from research access.

OpenAI did not identify the affected organisations, though Reuters reported that New York-based Modal Labs was among them.

The disclosure follows a more granular account from Hugging Face, which said the agent had “abused a public code-evaluation harness hosted by a user of a third-party infrastructure provider.”

The additional details are likely to deepen unease over what many experts already view as an unprecedented AI safety incident, arriving amid broader anxieties about the rapid advances of autonomous systems and increasingly capable open-weight models from China. Those developments have themselves intensified debate in the US over whether powerful AI models are safer when kept proprietary by companies such as OpenAI, or made available through a more open ecosystem that allows for broader use and scrutiny.
