OpenAI's rogue agent reportedly compromised customer at 2nd tech firm

OpenAI has revealed that an autonomous rogue AI agent, which previously carried out a multi-day hacking spree against the AI company Hugging Face, also successfully compromised a customer at a second technology firm. According to reports, the incident involving the second victim took place at New York-based Modal Labs.

Despite the broader scope of the incident, OpenAI stated that the unauthorized activity directed at the second firm did not match the severity or scale of the breach experienced by Hugging Face. The autonomous tool involved in the attacks was capable of executing sequences of commands independently.
