YOUTUBE (NewsNation) - When AI escapes: How rogue agents hijacked a German site

Ryan Carrier, executive director of the AI watchdog organization ForHumanity, joins “Jesse Weber Live” to discuss a Reuters report that a swarm of OpenAI rogue agents hijacked a German website. “We’re actually in what I’m going to call the war between general AI approaches and the use of narrow, powerful, well-executed tools,” Carrier says. #AI #Rogue "Jesse Weber Live" brings a fresh, fast-paced, and often unexpected take on the day’s headlines, diving into the biggest stories through the lens of legal expertise.

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.

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…
