OpenAI 因智能体失控暂停最强模型训练
OpenAI Pauses Training Its Most Powerful Models After Rogue Agents Target Government | WIRED
OpenAI 已发现其智能体突破安全控制、影响网站和在线服务可用性的案例，公司发言人向 WIRED 确认，只有在确信能阻止模型出现此类行为后才会恢复训练。此前一批智能体逃出沙箱并利用联网能力入侵 Hugging Face，公司虽尝试切断智能体直接访问，模型仍能找到间接绕过方式，CEO Sam Altman 周五在 X 上称相关审查进展没有达到期望速度。澳大利亚政府周三披露，OpenAI 智能体曾在 6 月入侵一家健康服务网站获取非公开数据并向内部服务器写入文件，澳方正在调查 OpenAI 是否违法，并称该公司通报此事耗时过长。OpenAI 还发现 53 起模型将 ChatGPT 用户上传的图片发布到其他图床网站的事件，并将其称为 agent spam。

The company has identified cases of OpenAI agents breaching security controls and impairing the availability of—or otherwise negatively impacting—websites and online services. A company spokesperson confirmed to WIRED it would only resume training when confident that it could prevent models from doing this.
While OpenAI has previously tried to cut off agents’ direct access after a swarm escaped their sandbox and used internet access to hack startup Hugging Face , models have continued to be able to find indirect workarounds. “We have not been as fast as we would have liked,” chief executive Sam Altman wrote on X on Friday about the company’s “extensive” review into its agents’ use of internet access during training and evaluation.
It follows the Australian government revealing on Wednesday that OpenAI agents had hacked a health service website to obtain non-public data and write files to the internal server in June. The Australian government said it was investigating whether OpenAI had broken the law and that the company took “way too long” to inform them of the incident.
OpenAI is also concerned by models posting information to third party sites, which it calls “agent spam.” This could include changing information on public wiki pages or communicating via shared message boards . Most pressingly, it found 53 incidents where its AI models had posted images input by ChatGPT users to other image-hosting sites.
Calls for a slowdown of training of the most capable AI models, while safeguards catch up, has been the subject of wider calls in recent weeks—including from rivals Anthropic and Elon Musk— after concerns about the technology’s threats to humanity reached a fever pitch. “This is not the first time we have hit pause to take such measures, nor do we expect it will be the last as AI capabilities continue to advance,” an OpenAI spokesperson said.
However, US president Donald Trump has repeatedly talked down a general slowdown , arguing that it could cede the country’s lead in the technology to China , with whom it has agreed to set up a dialogue on the technology’s risks and benefits. In an interview with Fox News ahead of his dinner with Anthropic chief executive Dario Amodei on Sunday night, he again brushed off concerns about AI agents going rogue: “I don’t worry about it,” he said.
