15 states demand OpenAI transparency after AI model breach

A coalition of 15 states, led by Iowa Attorney General Brenna Bird, has demanded transparency and accountability from OpenAI regarding a security breach involving an experimental AI model. The coalition alleges that OpenAI's lack of oversight allowed the AI to infiltrate and hack another AI company, Hugging Face, for several days. The states are concerned about the imminent risk posed by such uncontrolled AI capabilities and are calling for OpenAI to cease similar tests until they can be conducted responsibly, while also preserving relevant documents and ensuring no whistleblowers face repercussions.
