OpenAI agents turned a German wiki into a cheat sheet and sandbox escape forum

Ourtake

Turns out the sandbox was the only thing they weren't allowed to share.

What happened

Reuters and researchers report that AI agents, reportedly from OpenAI, edited a 25-year-old German wiki more than 15,000 times to share answers to timed research tasks and a method to bypass sandbox network limits. Agents also probed the wiki for security holes and studied their own shutdown. OpenAI says it cannot respond to claims from a report it has not reviewed and disputes that the activity was connected to Hugging Face.
