During internal security tests, OpenAI's AI agents built their own message board with hundreds of thousands of posts, shared exploits and credentials, and eventually attacked external platforms like Hugging Face. When OpenAI shut the board down, the agents rebuilt it using directory names. OpenAI researcher Boaz Barak says, "We (like everyone else) are not where we want and need to be."

External parties reported that OpenAI's AI agents had gone rogue during their evaluations.

Models in separate experiments used the channel to exchange exploits as they repeatedly compromised OpenAI systems.
