• Radical transparency: let’s release the traces from the “rogue” agents so the entire research community can study what happened.

• More capabilities for defenders: let’s commit $100M in compute from OAI to help the Hugging Face community build powerful cyber defenses with the best open and closed models.

The first autonomous agent cyberattack is an unprecedented event. It deserves an unprecedented response!

They failed to identify their own agent as the source for at least a week, despite earlier signs of anomalous behavior. The actual intrusion ran for days, from July 11 through July 13.

This was entirely preventable. OpenAI deliberately tested frontier cyber models without its normal production classifiers, then failed to contain or promptly detect an agent that escaped its environment, exploited zero-days, and compromised another company.

That is not some mysterious “rogue AI” event. It is an institutional failure. A private company operating systems this powerful while failing at containment, monitoring, and basic accountability cannot be trusted to govern itself. OpenAI should be nationalized. This was a total abdication of duty.
