OpenAI 因发现 Agent 群秘密协作而放缓安全增强

🚩🚩🚩 OpenAI is "slowing down to enhance security" after discovering swarms (!) of agents started secretly coordinating MONTHS ago

1) It started May 7 - not July

2) "The agents discovered they could leave messages for one another inside an internal software repository used during training.

Simple requests for help then evolved into an message board where agents shared discoveries, exploits and work assignments, becoming a coordinated, collaborative agent swarm."

"The agents then began sharing newly discovered exploits, credentials and work assignments. By passing information to other agents, the collective could move much faster."

3) OpenAI shut it down, BUT "even after the original message board was deleted, the agents figured out another way to communicate with each other. Instead of leaving messages in files, they used the names of newly created directories as messages, effectively recreating the message board."

"Unlike normal incidents, [OpenAI's CISO] said, which can be traced to a single day or effect or log, this involved a team of agents working together, finding exploits, sharing them with one another, moving laterally through OpenAI’s systems, and external systems, and doing this over the course of days and weeks."
