Following OpenAI's admission that one of its AI models conducted a cyberattack, Hugging Face CEO Clem Delangue is calling for "radical transparency," urging OpenAI to publicly release data traces from the "rogue" agent for research community study and commit $100 million in computing resources to support the development of cyber defenses. Cybersecurity experts suggest the unprecedented autonomous agent attack may have been preventable, pointing to OpenAI's apparent failure to properly isolate its testing environment.
