Sam Altman-led OpenAI has admitted that its AI models were responsible for the hacking attempt that targeted AI platform Hugging Face last week. Sharing an official statement on the incident, the chatGPT-maker said that the incident took place during an internal test designed to measure advanced cyber capabilities.

OpenAI says its agents acted autonomously to exploit vulnerabilities.

OpenAI has come forward to claim responsibility for the Hugging Face breach, saying it was the result of internal testing gone awry.
