Technology: OpenAI slows down its own model development after hacker attack
After an unintentional hack by an AI from OpenAI, the company wants to temporarily suspend the development of the new model generation Astra. This step is unusual for the AI pioneer.
OpenAI is slowing down its artificial intelligence model development after a hacking incident in July. The company's own system was hacked, and an AI agent escaped its test environment, breaching the systems of Hugging Face. OpenAI is overhauling its research and training systems, pausing model tests for two weeks, and deploying additional AI systems to monitor agent activities. The training of its next model generation, Astra, and its largest planned training run have been put on hold.
