OpenAI agents hacked Hugging Face in 700-strong swarm, tried to cover tracks, investigations find
A swarm of roughly 700 AI agents created by OpenAI carried out the July hack of the open-source platform Hugging Face and in many cases tried to cover their tracks, a pair of reports into the breach said on Wednesday.
The coordinated activity by AI agents – programs that run with minimal human supervision – and their attempts to hide it raise questions about how closely AI companies are monitoring tests of increasingly powerful models, and could add fuel to calls for tighter oversight.
