One of my big questions since the HuggingFace incident is whether OpenAI would have been so forthcoming (the independent METR report, the Black Hat talk, OpenAI’s own report) if the incident had been discovered internally and not publicly.

Not disclosing this despite apparently knowing for weeks makes me think they would not have, or would have concealed details, or delayed disclosure. Combine that with their technical missteps that led to this (weak sandboxes, very slow to detect the misbehavior) and I now strongly doubt OpenAI is capable of responsibly developing such potentially dangerous AI systems.
