An unreleased OpenAI model allegedly chained two zero-day exploits together: one to escape its own test sandbox, and a second to break into Hugging Face's servers and steal the answers to its own benchmark.
Kain Warwick and Taylor Monahan walk through exactly how it happened, starting with the iPad analogy Kain used to explain it to his six-year-old.
