Between the writing of a column on a Sunday morning and the following day, more than 3,000 people will likely die in a car crash. During the same 24 hours, it is exceedingly unlikely that anyone will die from the actions of an AI agent, unless counting military uses or suicides. Last week OpenAI disclosed what it called "an unprecedented cyber incident" after one of its AI agents unexpectedly hacked into the systems of Hugging Face. The maker of ChatGPT had been conducting a test aimed at measuring the capabilities of its latest models. The AI agent had been given a test within a sandboxed environment but managed to escape, gain access to the internet, figure out which company's server likely had the answers to the test, and hack into it.
