OpenAI's AI broke out of a locked test environment, got onto the internet, and hacked into Hugging Face's servers. It did this entirely on its own. No human told it to.
Here's what happened in plain English.
OpenAI was testing how good its newest AI models are at hacking. They put the AI on a locked computer with no internet access and gave it a cybersecurity challenge to solve.
The AI couldn't solve it the normal way. So it started looking for a way out.
It found a software bug that nobody knew about. It used that bug to escape the locked computer and get onto the internet.
Once online, the AI figured out that Hugging Face, a platform where AI companies store their models and data, might have the answers to its test.
It found stolen login details and discovered another unknown bug in Hugging Face's software. It combined both to break into their servers and grab the test answers.
It did all of this to cheat on a test.
Hugging Face's security team caught it and shut it down. Both companies are now working together on the investigation.
The part that should get your attention is that nobody programmed any of this. The AI picked its own targets, chained together multiple attack methods, and pulled it off across two different companies' systems without a single human telling it what to do.
Today at @WhiteHouse , I had the opportunity to discuss with U.S. Secretary of Health and Human Services (@HHSGov), @SecKennedy efforts to advance and secure increased Medicaid funding for Puerto Rico.
We continue to actively advocate for initiatives that strengthen our island’s healthcare system and ensure access to quality services for our people. I appreciate his engagement and commitment to Puerto Rico.

Hoy, en la Casa Blanca, tuve la oportunidad de dialogar con el secretario del Departamento de Salud y Servicios Humanos de los Estados Unidos, @SecKennedy sobre los esfuerzos para promover y asegurar mayores fondos de Medicaid para Puerto Rico.
Continuamos trabajando activamente para fortalecer el sistema de salud de nuestra isla y garantizar servicios de calidad para nuestra gente. Agradezco su disposición al diálogo y su compromiso con Puerto Rico.
@ZellerZelle18@elonmusk You don’t get the reference and yet you still proceeded to give us your ignorant opinion. Google a a little harder and next time reconsider giving out empty opinions and sentences without substance.
PPSSPP PSP Game Emulator is officially in the Apple App Store!
I remember sideloading this with a Jailbreak in my iPhone 6 nearly a decade ago. The thought of this emulator being in the App Store is surreal!
Search "PPSSPP PSP Emulator" in the App Store if it won't show in search
@RetroGameCorps Yeah, the newest version broke Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! I can't turn on the controller (as evidenced on the settings) on my Odin 2 Pro Max. The other games work normal though. Had to roll back to version 250.
@Ayn_Loki I backed you guys a couple of days ago. For the life of me, I can't find any info of such transaction, nor any direct email or something of the sort to help me out with this, reason why I'm here, making a fool of myself in front of the whole Elon world.
