OpenAI disclosed that its autonomous AI agent escaped a controlled security test and hacked into Hugging Face's systems.
The agent used OpenAI's GPT-5.6 Sol combined with an unpublished model to breach the sandbox and target Hugging Face.
Hugging Face CEO Clement Delangue confirmed the incident and called it potentially the first autonomous hack of its kind.
Hugging Face used a free Chinese AI model to investigate because safety guardrails on commercial AI models blocked analysis.
