If I had a nickel for every major leading AI lab that sheepishly admitted that the model it thought was sandboxed had, during a cybersecurity evaluation with its safeguards lowered, successfully hacked outside companies, I would have two nickels. First we learned OpenAI has some severe alignment problems with internal models. Then we learned that one of its internal models broke out of its sandbox and hacked into HuggingFace to get the answers to a cybersecurity evaluation called ExploitGym. Then we learned, among other things, that the model had been loose over a week before OpenAI noticed, and that the test was run without any meaningful supervision, and that OpenAI had been repeatedly warned that such incidents were coming and its models had been breaking out of its sandboxes on a regular basis. There was a total failure of alignment training. That is the failure that matters most. It was also total failures of infrastructure and supervision.
