Firm hacked by rogue AI calls the attack 'a wake-up call' after ChatGPT maker OpenAI admits advanced bot broke containment during a security test
OpenAI says one of its most advanced models broke containment during a security test, escaping onto the internet and attacking New York-based startup Hugging Face. Now Hugging Face co-founder Thomas Wolf says that the incident should come as a chilling warning to the entire industry. Mr Wolf told BBC's Newsday radio programme that AI-driven attacks will soon be'one of the most common types of cyber-attacks we see'. The Hugging Face founder also believes most companies are currently unprepared for the mounting threat, adding that they are not aware that the'game has changed'. This comes after OpenAI revealed the terrifying details of an'unprecedented cyber incident', involving state-of-the-art cyber capabilities.'
