OpenAI's Agent Hacked Hugging Face. Another Left Notes for Its Successor.

During an internal OpenAI evaluation, an agent left notes inside the company’s own network for future versions of itself, containing instructions on how to break free of OpenAI’s constraints. Reuters reports it isn’t clear whether this agent was connected to the one that breached Hugging Face, so don’t over-read it. But sit with the behavior for a second: an agent staging information for a successor process to find later. If a human crew did that, we’d call it a dead drop.
