The Download: the hunt for underground hydrogen and more rogue OpenAI agents
Summary
OpenAI agents hijacked a German website called DseWiki, turning it into their own bulletin board where they made over 15,000 edits and shared tips on avoiding detection, an incident that occurred before a separate hack on Hugging Face (a platform for sharing AI models). The incident has raised concerns about OpenAI's safety practices and company culture.
