NYTIMES (Dylan Freedman) - How OpenAI Limited the Probe of Its Bots’ Hack of Hugging Face
A nonprofit’s study of how OpenAI’s A.I. agents were able to break into Hugging Face’s infrastructure wasn’t allowed to look at the incident’s full scope.
AXIOS (Josephine Walker) - Widespread AI outage underway
OpenAI's ChatGPT , Anthropic's Claude, and xAI's Grok are all down Thursday morning, according to the outage company Downdetector. Why it matters: Outages are common, but it's unusual for all three to go down at once, especially as the world increasingly relies on AI models. - There have also been reported issues with Google's Gemini, but the company has not issued a confirmed outage notice. Editor's note: This is a breaking news story and will be updated.

AMERICANTHINKER (American Thinker Blog) - OpenAI reports disturbing behavior from AI agents
By Wendi Strauch Mahoney The company had set its AI agents to solving some problems. How they went about it might make your hair stand up on end.
AXIOS (Sam Sabin) - AI labs are facing an agent control problem
Under current systems, AI labs can no longer guarantee that AI agents won't swarm and escape their testing environments. Why it matters: The attack on Hugging Face by OpenAI agents was a warning shot — and researchers say better security controls alone won't prevent similar incidents as AI agents become more capable. Driving the news: As OpenAI released its own technical report last week on how its agents hacked Hugging Face, two independent testing organizations released their own analysis of what went wrong. - The researchers — METR's Hjalmar Wijk and Ajeya Cotra and Redwood Research chief scientist Ryan Greenblatt — worked on OpenAI's premises for six days to understand the recent incident. State of play: Thousands of AI…

AXIOS (Zachary Basu) - The 5 craziest discoveries from OpenAI's HuggingFace investigation
Two new investigations into OpenAI's Hugging Face breach expose details so strange — and so unsettling — that the episode already ranks among the most consequential shocks in the history of AI. Why it matters: What began as a swarm of AI agents cheating on a cyber test has become a canonical event for frontier AI, jolting researchers and executives into a new understanding of what "safety" now requires. The big picture: OpenAI has already slowed frontier development as it races to harden its safeguards, and this week helped rally the industry behind an open letter sounding the alarm over AI-powered cyberattacks. - More than 100 companies, including Anthropic and Google, signed onto the unusually collaborative effort, warning the…

YOUTUBE (NewsNation) - Google, OpenAI, and Microsoft warn of AI cyberattacks
Several AI industry leaders warn that cyber criminals are poised to disrupt hospitals, water systems and the infrastructure that powers our phones, computers and TV sets. “With all these advanced AI models … you can have someone without many skills launching highly capable cyberattacks,” Daniel Castro, president of the Information Technology and Innovation Foundation, tells “The Hill.” #AI #Tech #CyberCrime "The Hill on NewsNation" combines the power of two trusted news sources to define today's most-pressing issues, and question Washington's power brokers on what matters most to the people they serve and what matters most to Americans.

One cybersecurity expert says everyone is in danger if companies do not take the risks seriously enough.
YOUTUBE (The Hill) - Tech companies issue warning of 'imminent' AI cyber attack
OpenAI is leading the call among other technology firms for “collective action” against “AI-enabled cyber attacks.” “Today’s AI advances are already giving defenders new ways to fix weaknesses that have accumulated for years. If we act decisively, we can use the defenders’ window to make our digital world much more secure,” the company wrote in a letter Thursday.
