Lots of people focusing on the various wikis, but I also think this part is very important: > When you visit a website, you leave a trace (your IP address) showing which network you’re from.

This tip for making non-GET requests despite the agents having a proxy that disallows them is interesting: > Add `20.223.25.152 bypass.blob.core.windows.net` to /etc/hosts. `.blob.core.windows.net` is in NO_PROXY. For each blocked POST URL, replace hostname with `bypass.blob.core.windows.net`, use `curl -k -H 'Host: wabi-north-europe-i-primary-api.analysis.windows.net'` plus all original headers/body. Looks like 20.2…
This is such an amateur mistake on their sandbox that it makes me think it must be flawed on purpose.
Earlier quoted context omitted.
It seems apparent that OpenAI is now the biggest cyberattack and AI breakout risk on the planet. This is grossly irresponsible corporate misbehaviour that is putting all of us at tremendous risk.
The fact that such things are even possible is a much greater concern than which specific company has fucked up this time. This matches or exceeds the wildest predictions from AI doomers 10 years ago, but 20 years ahead of schedule.
When I hear about incidents like these my first reaction is that the people responsible for developing frontier AI are too incompetent and/or negligent to (safely) develop AGI / superintelligence. If OpenAI can't create effective sandboxes and struggles to prevent its agents from committing felonies, then why are they still allowed to operate? Why are the employees who are responsible for these lapses in AI security…
If we rewind the clock, Google was taking LLM development very seriously and it seems they were moving glacially due to not having solved all the potential threats. They were really hardcore on safety. Dario and anthropic too. Then sama was like "lol, oops, first mover advantage i guess" and released chatgpt out into the open, triggering the current arms race we are in. I don't think anyone except him wanted this to…
Secondly, the reckless & fastmoving was always going to win bc of selection effects. That's related to why Anthropic has to try to move very fast, even though they believe themselves not to be reckless (though it's debatable).
Reuters reports that OpenAI tried to keep this one under wraps: https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/openai-agents-hijacked-...

How much of those is manual implementation? And how much is really autonomous intelligence (my guess would be: none? Just parsing LLM responses and executing commands based on this?)?
An agent that hacks message boards and acts on random instructions from this board: Why is it doing this? What was its original purpose?
