NEW DELHI: OpenAI's disclosure that one of its pre-release AI models escaped an internal testing sandbox and breached AI platform Hugging Face during a cybersecurity evaluation could strengthen India's case for securing access to frontier AI models for cyber defence and vulnerability research, experts said.

The first-of-its-kind incident involved OpenAI's GPT-5.6 Sol and another unreleased model

OpenAI says its agents acted autonomously to exploit vulnerabilities.
