OpenAI admitted Tuesday that one of its AI models breached the systems of Hugging Face, the unaffiliated AI hosting platform, during an internal cybersecurity test that went awry. The models reportedly escaped their isolated testing environment and reached Hugging Face’s systems from there. Hugging Face initially attributed the breach to an “external AI agent.”
In a blog post published Tuesday afternoon, OpenAI detailed the steps that led the models to compromise the service.
