While large language models present real risks to society, experts say they can be tested and largely controlled using well-worn cybersecurity and policy choices.

OpenAI confirmed their agents were behind a campaign in May that researchers say flooded the popular online code repository with malicious software packages.

The Republican lawmaker called OpenAI’s leadership decisions “reckless,” and used recent warnings about the existential risk of AI to bolster his inquiry.

The company says the breach stemmed from a systemic failure of alignment and security, and has taken measures to prevent agents from independently orchestrating complex cyberattacks.

The designation would unlock a range of federal services, tools and resources for an industry that policymakers view as increasingly tied to national and economic security.

In a post-mortem, the frontier AI testing company said internet access for models is necessary to fully test out their cybersecurity capabilities.

As frontier models and their sandbox escaping exploits dominate front-page news, researchers are increasingly worried about cheaper, more efficient AI models. 

The company rolled out “Red” and “Blue” programs for defenders, introduced a new model and announced partnerships with 16 major cybersecurity vendors.
