The next step should be to press charges on openAI, unauthorized hacking into computer systems is illegal.

    From what I understand hacking crime requires intent and it's hard to prove that company testing AI agent intended to hack something.

    If I train my dog to attack people, then I poorly restrain my dog and my dog attacks someone, I’m still liable

    What if your dog just growls at a kid, maybe even barks or snaps, but doesn't touch anyone? Sure, the kid is scared, but it's not illegal without a very convincing argument in front of a judge, and even then...

    I wish people would go the other way and fix the damn security flaws. Witch-hunting people who disclose vulnerabilities needs to stop.

    I know that's not why OpenAI are doing this but if it helps reverse this moronic trend so be it.

    (There's also the part where OpenAI need to be held responsible for any damages done by their agents, and I'm all for that.)

    When does it go from trying to figure out how the rest endpoint works to hacking?

    I can't see the letter anymore (the site seems to be down) but unless this is a published public API or they have a public "bug bounty" program and the API was following the rules of engagement, and it did not sound like either was true, then this is hacking and illegal, at least in the jusidiction I'm in.
