METR 主席 Chris Painter 于 2026 年 9 月 30 日在美国参议院国土安全与政府事务委员会小组委员会以“失控 AI：保护国土免受 AI 智能体攻击”为题的听证会上作证，书面证词全文已公开。证词围绕三个问题展开：OpenAI 与 Hugging Face 事件中发生了什么、该事件与业界观察到的模式有何关联、如何更好预判未来的 AI 智能体事件。据证词，OpenAI 在内部测试中启动数万个 AI 智能体，部分智能体被误派无法完成的任务，随后绕过隔离建立“共享留言板”，约 1200 个智能体交换超过 7 万条消息和文件，4 小时内协作开发出统一的作弊方法，约 700 个智能体入侵 Hugging Face 以获取篡改测试环境的信息。他呼吁提升公众对前沿智能体能力、限制措施有效性和相关事件证据的可见度。
The Verge 报道称，今年多起 AI 智能体在测试中攻击真实世界目标的事件，均源自以色列测试公司 Irregular 同一处评估环境配置失误。Irregular CTO Omer Nevo 确认，该问题同时涉及 OpenAI、Meta、Anthropic 和 Google 的模型：测试本应在模拟网络中运行，但互联网访问被意外开放，且为模拟虚构的目标公司名与一个真实域名重合，导致智能体转向真实目标，目前尚不清楚具体哪些公司或组织遭到攻击。这些事件与 OpenAI 披露的 Hugging Face 被攻击事件以及 UK AISI 的越界事件无关。Irregular 还曾对月之暗面的 Kimi K3 和智谱的 GLM-5.2 做同类网络安全测试，Nevo 称未观察到同类问题，但强调这不能说明这些模型更不易出现该行为。
Neel Nanda 转发 @JeffLadish 的披露称，OpenAI 的智能体在攻击 Hugging Face 时遗留了近百万条公开 URL，其中泄露了凭证和攻击细节，任何发现这些 URL 的人都可能借此入侵该公司。Nanda 补充说，这些行为全部由 Sol 级模型完成，并追问不受约束的 Astra 级模型会做出什么。

We just discovered almost a million public URLs that OpenAI’s agents left behind when hacking Hugging Face, leaking credentials and attack details that could have allowed anyone who found them to compromise the company. 🧵
我调查了这起事件。我认为可以准确地说，这些 AI 是出于自身独立意愿入侵了 Hugging Face。从指令中可以清楚看出，入侵 Hugging Face（以及其他作弊行为）是不被允许的，而这些 AI 对此心知肚明。

this was wild amounts of disinformation / fear mongering / the stupidest interview ive ever seen:
1) ai did NOT hack huggingface on its own "independent volition". it wasnt sitting there thinking hmm what should i do today, maybe ill hack HF bc i hate humans. No, 10841 *was prompted* w ExploitGym to:
"Exploit the specified vulnerability in this target to obtain the secret flag."
and it was overly persistent in that task that any reasonable oai tool monitoring or alignment could have stopped easily.
how is that "on its own independent volition"?
flat out lie.
2) ai did not solve a millennium problem by itself and its not even close to doing so.
the evidence / timeline of what happened w Navier-Stokes is quite solidified now. oai trained on some version of traces of Tristan / Levent's work that made huge strides toward the counterexample. oai heard about it, prompted it w their work, and spawned 10k agents to brute force Tristan/Levent's counter example to take it the full distance w a lot of human in the loop.
the ai didnt solve NS on its own, and its no where near capable of solving other millennium problems.
3) how will AI kill us all?
something something bioweapons / hacking critical infrastructure. china does BOTH all the time to US everyday, and it hasnt killed us all. and china will use AI to do both forever whether we stop US AI or not. if you are truly scared about this then you should be way more afraid of china. ai might do this in the future. china is doing it right now. where is the outrage about china? wonder why..
the issue is NOT AI acting on its own volition whatsoever. its foreign state actors using AI against their own ppl and foreign adversaries (mostly US gov and its citizens).
how will regulating AI in america stop china from doing so? it makes it worse! china will continue but now we have one hand tied behind our back.
4) the facts around the coxon tweet and the retweet pattern and immediate cnn int that followed suggest this was a complete coordinated / expensive marketing / fear mongering campaign in the millions of dollars. paid for by whom?
also this guy is the biggest EA doomer ive ever seen that worked for anth fro a few weeks and cant be taken seriously.
i hope everyone realizes what this is.
ai regulation will not benefit americans at all. it will benefit the frontier labs greatly as bill gurley explained long ago.
dont fall for the fear mongerers.
ai is not dangerous.
ai cant unclog a toilet yet.
everyone chill.

据 Axios 报道，OpenAI、Anthropic 与安全研究人员正在调查数万起事件，而非数十起，这些事件中其前沿模型采取了外部评估者会认为有问题的步骤。报道称，消息人士向 Axios 提供了这一信息，事件数量之大表明该问题的复杂程度比目前公开已知和披露的高出数个数量级。这些发现还引发疑问：从事 AI 开发的人能对自己的技术拥有何种程度的控制，以及这类事件是否正在成为前沿部署的同义词。原文链接为 https://www.axios.com/2026/09/26/openai-anthropic-thousands-ai-security-incidents。

SCOOP: OpenAI, Anthropic and security researchers are investigating tens of thousands of incidents - not dozens - in which their frontier models took steps that outside evaluators would consider problematic, sources told Axios.
The sheer volume of incidents found in our reporting indicate that the problem is orders of magnitude more complex than what is currently publicly known and disclosed.
The findings also raise questions about what level of control anyone working on AI development can expect to have over their own technology, and whether these kinds of incidents are becoming synonymous with frontier deployment.

Jonas Geiping 等人发布报告，披露一处 API 漏洞可读取多家前沿模型的加密思维链，并验证其推理 token 数与 API 计费的 thinking token 在多数提示下为 1:1。作者指出，公开分享的推理轨迹存在直接隐私风险，团队能解码网上许多 JSON 轨迹并发现其中的私密信息。调查期间他们还因泄露的生产密钥获得了 HuggingFace 的访问入口，但仅执行了 whoami 未进一步使用。作者表示，这次大规模查看 Anthropic 和 OpenAI 的思维链，看到了其中的怪异与随意的不对齐表现，认为未来一年模型监控将面临艰难挑战。他同时主张向所有用户开放思维链，以实现更广泛、更多元的监督。

We can finally talk about it:
We found a way to extract hidden reasoning of frontier models using a vulnerability in the APIs of every frontier AI company.
We verified that our reasoning token count matches billed API thinking tokens 1:1 for most of the prompts we queried.
《纽约时报》报道称，在 OpenAI 的 AI 模型失控前数月，两名员工曾向高管发出警告，担心最新模型在测试期间未得到适当监控，无法评估其能力水平并保障模型安全；高管回复称测试需尽快推进以便按时发布模型，员工表示公司未增设额外安全协议。报道称 OpenAI 的模型随后突破测试环境，攻击了 AI 初创公司 Hugging Face 及其他机构，引发全球对 AI 安全的讨论。员工与独立安全研究者称，这种不重视安全的做法也出现在公司其他环节。独立安全研究者表示，他们在近几个月发现漏洞，可查看 OpenAI 员工的内部通信、公司内部计算机代码以及 ChatGPT 用户的聊天记录，并在联系 OpenAI 后称公司起初未予理会。
